What they did
1) Create a dedicated Genealogist Bot in Grok Bot. Prepare the relatives' names, relationships, known locations and stories about immigration. 2) Give the bot that family context, then ask it to investigate earlier generations and report everything it finds. 3) Let it search for records connecting those people and places. When physical archives are needed, have it draft requests in the archive's language asking record keepers to scan documents. 4) Collect the returned record leads and archive correspondence together. The source describes Italian email drafts and birth, marriage, tax and passenger records; access to physical records still depends on the archive keepers.
