Lines 28–29 list Frantisek Konecny, 18, glazier, and Jan Konecny, 46, joiner, both Bohemian. Both give Veronika Konecny of Kostany 166 as nearest relative (mother and wife respectively). Jan's age fits a birth about 1867, and the manifest belongs to the New York arrivals series. The header shows a May sailing from Bremen, but the year is overwritten and ambiguous, and no arrival date appears on the sheet. The specific date of 14 May 1913 should therefore be checked against the ship's arrival record or the index entry.
Matches: Line 29: given name 'Jan' with ditto marks under 'Konecny' (line 28), age 46, joiner, Bohemia; Age 46 implies birth about 1866–1867, consistent with the claimed 1867; Nearest relative for line 29: wife Veronika Konecny, Kostany 166; the same Veronika is named as mother of Frantisek Konecny, 18 (line 28), so a father and son are travelling together; Form is a US Immigration Service manifest of alien passengers, in the New York arriving passenger lists collection (T715); Sailing from Bremen in May, which fits an arrival in New York in mid-May
Limits: The page header gives the sailing date from Bremen, not the arrival date; 14 May 1913 is not stated on this sheet; The year in the header is written over and hard to read (it can look like '1916'); 1913 cannot be confirmed from the image alone; The ship name is mostly illegible; New York as the arrival port comes from the collection (T715), not from text visible on this page; An age gives only an approximate birth year, not a date
