Line 28 of this Kaiser Wilhelm II manifest (Bremen, August 12, 191_) lists Petr Konečny, age 19, a glazier, an Austrian national of Bohemian race. His last permanent residence is Kostany, Bohemia, and his mother Veronika Konečny lives there. The age fits a birth around 1893, and Bohemia fits the claimed residence (Czechoslovakia being the later name for the region). The middle name Pavel is absent, and the single status cannot be read with certainty in the marital column, so those details rest on other evidence.
Matches: Line 28: family name 'Konečny', given name 'Petr'; Age 19, consistent with birth c. 1893; Last permanent residence country column reads 'Bohemia'; nationality Austria, race 'Bohemian'; Town of residence written 'Kostany' (hyphenated 'Kosto-/ny'); nearest relative is mother Veronika Konečny, Kostany, Bohemia; Ship Kaiser Wilhelm II, sailing from Bremen, August 12, 191_
Limits: Middle name 'Pavel' does not appear; only 'Petr' is given; The marital-status entry for line 28 is not clearly legible, so 'single' cannot be confirmed from the image; The year is printed '191' with the final digit not filled in, so the exact sailing year needs the Ancestry index or ship arrival data; Record says Bohemia, Austria; 'Czechoslovakia' is the later name for the same area (the state did not exist until 1918), so this is consistent; No residence date is recorded in the claim; the manifest implies residence in Bohemia shortly before the August 191_ sailing
