Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 2/4, tier record.
The 1920 directory page shows a widow, Veronia Konecny, living at 919 Park in Manitowoc, which fits a 1920 Manitowoc residence for Veronika if she married a Konečný (Jno). Nothing in the page connects her to the surname Kadlec or to birth in 1867, so the match rests on name and place only. The citation also says 1915 while the image is 1920, and that mismatch needs fixing.
Matches: The 1920 Wright's Manitowoc County Directory (p. 245 image) lists "Konecny Veronia (wid Jno) h 919 [Park]" in Manitowoc, Wisconsin; The given name Veronia is a variant of Veronika; She is a widow, so a married surname different from a maiden name Kadlec would be expected; Other Konecny households at 919 Park (Jos, Mary, Peter and Anna) suggest one family group
Flags: The entry is under the surname Konecny, not Kadlec. Linking it to Veronika Kadlec depends on Kadlec being her maiden name, and the directory does not say so.; The citation detail says the 1915 directory, but the image is the 1920 Wright's directory. The citation should be corrected to match the year shown.
Limits: A city directory gives no birth year or age, so it cannot confirm 1867.; It does not name her maiden name or parents, so identity rests on the first name and the husband's name Jno (Jan).; The street name is partly cut off after "919" (it reads Park in the neighbouring entries).; A directory entry shows only where she lived, not the exact date.
