Interpreting Slave Owning relationship
Hi, Please take a look to improve the ability of the ChatBot to interpret Slavery relationships.
Here is an example:
"San Juan Bautista, Guacarí, Valle del Cauca, Colombia records," images, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-L9VH-PLT5?view=explore : Jul 8, 2025), image 33 of 595; Archivo Diocesano de Buga (Colombia).

The phrase says "[Yginio] és hijo legitimo de Valerio, y de Cayetana esclavos de Doña Marina Lozano de este vecindario".
Notice how record is correct as coding Marina Lozano as the slaveholder of Valerio, and conversely, Valerio (and spouse Cayetana) being slaves of Marina Lozano.
However, when asking about Valerio's life, the Chatbot gives a vague answer about slavery.
Trying to pin it down ("Was Valerio a slave?") it gives it the wrong interpretation:

Your attention to this matter will be appreciated. 😉
The problem extends to other people. For instance,

Manuel was a slave owned by Cayetano Rengifo. However, ChatBot insists in interpreting the documents and indexing in the opposite way, as if Cayetano Rengifo was owned by Manuel.
As you can understand, this bug is very distressing. Please correct the algorithm.
