Susan Fischer-Copple
Stuck on a genealogy record in old German script, Latin or Czech? Professional genealogist Susan Fischer Copple shows how AI tools like Claud .ai can help – using a four generation Bohemian blacksmith family as a real, working example from a single birth record all the way back to a village smith with a surprising twist. Practical techniques, honest AI successes and mistakes, and (internet gods willing) a live translation demo included.
