1940 United States Federal Census

Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 1/4, tier index.
The citation names only the census place, roll and page. It has no age, name or birthplace text. A 1940 census could at most corroborate a birth year of about 1924 and a Wisconsin birthplace. The exact date and the city of Manitowoc cannot be confirmed from this entry, and nothing here contradicts the claim.
Matches: Census place is Manitowoc, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, matching the claimed birthplace county and city; A 1940 census would place a person born in 1924 in the household at about age 15 to 16
Flags: No image or transcription is attached, so the name, age and household cannot be checked; A 1940 census gives an age and a state of birth, not a birth date, so it cannot support 22 November 1924; The citation shows only where the household was living in 1940, not where Frank was born; Cannot tell which person in the census is Frank Konecny

The image shows the Anna Konecny household in Manitowoc with a son Frank, born in Wisconsin, aged 13 on line 39. That age implies a birth in 1926–27, about two years later than the claimed 22 November 1924. The place fits but the age does not, so this citation does not support the claimed birth date. Either this is a different Frank or the age was misreported, and the link should be reviewed.
Matches: Census place matches the citation: Manitowoc, Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, Ward 2, ED 36-14, sheet 11A; Line 39 lists Frank Konecny, son of the head Anna Konecny (48, widowed, born Czechoslovakia), a Czech-surname household; Frank's birthplace is given as Wisconsin, consistent with the claimed state of birth
Flags: Frank's age on line 39 reads as 13 on the April 1940 enumeration date (27 April 1940). That implies birth about April 1926 to April 1927, not 22 November 1924, which would make him 15. The gap is about two years.; Siblings are Joseph 18, Mary 17 and William (about 11–13). A 1924 birth would put Frank between Mary and Joseph in age, which does not fit this household's sequence as listed.; It is unproven that this Frank is the Frank Konecny (1924–2006) in the database. The age mismatch could mean a different person or an age misreport.
Limits: A census gives age and state of birth, not a birth date, so it cannot confirm 22 November 1924 even if the ages had matched.; The record gives 'Wisconsin' only, not the city of Manitowoc, as the birthplace.; Handwriting is small, so the age digits should be rechecked on a higher-resolution image.
