    RLP 370: Tracing the Enslaved in the 1900 U.S. Census and Enslaved.org Project
    Aug 11 2025
    Before the episode's main topic, Diana shares how she uses AI in transcribing deeds and court records and for creating source citations and abstracts for her research log. Nicole shares that she's been using ChatGPT to summarize profile pages from FamilySearch's Tree for her research log. Nicole and Diana discuss tracing enslaved individuals in U.S. records, specifically focusing on the 1900 U.S. Census and the Enslaved.org project. Nicole introduces the challenges of researching enslaved people, noting that identifying information like age and family groups is often found in slave schedules and post-emancipation records like the 1867 Voter Registration and 1870 census. She explains that formerly enslaved individuals may have changed surnames after emancipation, making family groups and ages crucial for tracing them. They then highlight two projects that aid this research: the Enslaved.org project and the 1900 U.S. Census dataset on FamilySearch.org, a collaboration between Michigan State University and FamilySearch International. Diana shares her personal research on the Royston family in Chambers County, Alabama, demonstrating how she correlates slave schedules with later census records and uses the 1900 U.S. Census dataset to identify potential candidates. Nicole then discusses searching the Enslaved.org database and its features for finding individuals. Listeners will learn how to approach tracing enslaved ancestors using these valuable resources.

    RLP 369: Decoding the 1819 Weatherford Assault Case in Frontier Arkansas
    Aug 4 2025
    Today’s episode, sponsored by Newspapers.com, focuses on decoding the 1819 Weatherford Assault Case in Frontier Arkansas. Diana introduces the topic of researching challenging court records and how new AI tools can assist with finding, transcribing, and understanding them. She discusses her project to discover the father of Henderson Weatherford, which led her to Lawrence County, Arkansas, court records. Diana explains how FamilySearch's Full-Text search capability helped her find records for William and Buman/Bunyan Weatherford. Diana then explains the process of transcribing the court records. She describes how she used Claude.ai to transcribe the Weatherford entries, emphasizing the importance of checking AI for accuracy and providing a sample prompt for transcription. Nicole then discusses understanding the court case. Diana created a Google Doc with transcriptions of the five separate entries for the case and then used Claude.ai to explain the entire case. Listeners will learn how to use AI for transcription and interpretation of court records, making complex historical documents more accessible. The hosts also discuss the chronological order of the Weatherford court records and the challenge of name inconsistencies, such as Buman/Benjamin/Buneon Weatherford, which is common in historical records. They conclude by highlighting how AI is making a significant difference in genealogical research. This summary was generated by Google Gemini.

  • RLP 368: AI in the Driver’s Seat - Using Technology to Identify Vehicles in Family Photos

    RLP 368: AI in the Driver’s Seat - Using Technology to Identify Vehicles in Family Photos
    Jul 28 2025
    Welcome to Research Like a Pro! In this episode, Diana and Nicole explore how artificial intelligence can help identify vehicles in old family photographs, adding depth to family stories. Diana shares her experience using a custom GPT called "Genealogy Eyes" through ChatGPT to analyze a photo of her mother, Anna Mae Kelsey, seated on a sheep in front of the family car. Listeners learn how AI can identify specific car models and features, providing insights into the family's economic status and the cultural context of the time. The AI analysis helped Diana identify the car as likely a 1930 Ford Model A Tudor or Fordor Sedan, a popular and affordable vehicle of that era. This discovery, combined with knowledge of her grandfather's successful livestock business, painted a richer picture of her grandparents' hard work and prosperity. The episode highlights how details like a family car can offer valuable clues to understanding an ancestor's life. This summary was generated by Google Gemini.
