1940 United States Federal Census

The image shows the Anna Konecny household in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, with Frank listed as a single son aged 13, on sheet 11A of ED 36-14. Place, residence year, relation and marital status all match the claim. The only discrepancy is the age: 13 in April 1940 implies a birth around 1926-27, not 1924. The residence claim is well supported, but the birth year in the database may need checking.
Matches: 1940 census, Manitowoc, Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, Ward 2, ED 36-14, sheet 11A, matching the citation detail; Lines 36-40: household of Anna Konecny, head, widowed, age 48, born Czechoslovakia; Line 39: Frank, son, M, W, age 13, single (S), born Wisconsin, in the same household; Marital status Single and relation to head Son both match the claim note; Age 13 gives a birth year of about 1926-27; this is a 2-3 year gap from the claimed 1924 and is discussed in the note
Flags: Age 13 implies birth around 1926-27, whereas the claimed birth year is 1924; the difference is more than one year
Limits: Census gives an age, not a birth date, so the 1924 birth year cannot be confirmed from this record; Surname is handwritten and reads as Konecny/Konecný; the match relies on the first names and household context; The record does not identify this Frank as the person who died in 2006; that link comes from other sources
