Well, I don't perform music like this, so I wouldn't know if there's a
precedent for this notation. I'm just a guy with the temerity to try
and answer the OP's question using conventional notation rather than
something that looks strange.

Where might I find a reference on notation of this sort? Is is on the
web or are there special books?

Well, most of us concluded that the OP probably knew what notes should
be contained in each bar better than the appropriate time signature,
looking at the question posed which is how to define the time signature.

Cheers,
David.
