Mr. Bailey,
Again thank you for your detailed suggestions. I "opened" both of them and
the second appeared closer to what I want. In addition your
commentary/explanation got me to ask "What if?" So I tried a few other
things and came up with the attached snippet.
As a teacher I appreciate what you have done to help me, a learner.

At the end of the second alternative ending in the attached snippet an
unwanted bar appears and disrupts the meter.
I have experimented with placing
\set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment 3/8)
after the second alternative. Using it restores the meter. It does not
remove the extra bar.
What other method should I try?
you have two possibilities:
first:
you have a partial upbeat, so you also have a partial first repeat bar. use
the \set Timing.measurePosition in the first alternative like this:
<<<
\relative c'' {
\time 3/4
\set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment -5/16)
\repeat volta 2 {
e16 e8. e16 | e4 e e }
\alternative {
{
\set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment -7/16)
e4 r8.
}
{
e4 r8
\key ees \minor
bes8 [ ges ees ] |
}
}
d4 d d |
}
>>>
however, you then have a key change in the middle of the second alternative.
this is ugly. a more "correct" way of notating your example, avoiding
partial bars after the first bar:
<<<
\relative c'' {
\time 3/4
\set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment -5/16)
e16 e8. e16 |
\repeat volta 2 {
e4 e e
}
\alternative {
{ e4 r8. e16 e8. e16 | }
{ e4 r8 }
}
bes8 [ ges ees ] |
\key ees \minor
d4 d d |
}
>>>
