Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 2/4, tier index.
The citation gives only the location and page of a 1950 census entry. It does not say who is listed, so it cannot state the name 'Frank Konecny'. Manitowoc is a plausible place and nothing contradicts the claim, but the name, age and household need to be checked against the actual page.
Matches: Citation is a 1950 US Federal Census entry from Manitowoc, Wisconsin, a plausible place for a Czech-descended Konecny family; A man born 1924 would be about 25-26 in April 1950, a plausible age for a census household entry
Flags: No transcription or image is provided, so the name as written in the record cannot be checked; Citation gives only the census place, roll, page and ED, with no named person, age or household members; Cannot confirm that the person listed is this Frank Konecny (1924–2006) rather than another man of the same name

The attached 1950 census page, sheet 11, ED 36-19, Manitowoc, shows Frank Konecny as head of household at line 1, aged 25, born in Wisconsin. This matches the claimed name and is consistent with a 1924 birth. The earlier validator could not see the image, but it confirms the name. Identity with the 1924–2006 individual relies on the age and place fitting.
Matches: Line 1 of the image reads "Konecny, Frank", listed as Head of household; Age 25, which gives a birth year of about 1924–25 and fits the claimed 1924; Born in Wisconsin, living in Manitowoc, Manitowoc County, Wisconsin; The page, enumeration district (36-19) and sheet number 11 match the citation; Household also lists wife Marjorie J. (24) and son Peter J., which fits a young family
Limits: A census gives an age, not a birth date, so it cannot confirm 1924 exactly; It cannot show the death year 2006 or confirm this is the same Frank Konecny as in the database without other evidence of his family; The handwriting is somewhat cursive, but the surname and given name are legible
