Abstract
Disclosed herein relates to example embodiments for recognizing handwritten information in a genealogical record. A computing server may receive a genealogical record. The genealogical record may take the form of an image of a physical form having a structured layout, fields, and handwritten information. The computing server may divide the genealogical record into a plurality of areas based on the structured layout. The computing server may identify, for a particular area, a type of field that is included within the particular area. The computing server may select a handwriting recognition model for identifying the handwritten information in the particular area. The handwriting recognition model may be selected based on the type of the field. The computing server may input an image of the particular area to the handwriting recognition model to generate text of the handwritten information. The computing server may store the text of the handwritten information.
