The way to add extra fields is to store them in Extra. These fields are removed before generating citations, so you can put your annotations below “Original date: 1907” and it will all work out.
Hi, thanks for this discussion, which is exactly what I am looking for. I am using the style "Séminaire Saint-Sulpice - Ecole Théologie (French)", would it be possible to add a field "original date of publication" as well?
@LacXav Can you please start a new thread listing all of the changes you would like to this style (e.g., chapter number, original date, etc.), with examples for what you want them to look like?

See CMS §§4.19–21. When a work is in the public domain, one may omit all except the most relevant information (in the following instance, the translator and original publication date) and supply information about the source from which the book is now available.

That can actually be put into the "edition field" and will appear correctly:
Test output: John Van Seters, In Search of History: Historiography in the Ancient World and the Origins of Biblical History, Reprinted from the Yale Univ. Press ed., 1983. (Winona Lake, Ind: Eisenbrauns, 1997).
With Chicago 17 full note style you can just add original-date: 1865 to the "extras field" and it will add the date and it will put all the necessary info in the right place.

If you put it in the edition field you have to manually format it and the text needed is different for the note "1865; repr.," vs bibliography "1865. Repr.,"

But it does not parse. Is there some extra step I need? A lot of my material is structured this way.
