New York, U.S., Arriving Passenger and Crew Lists (including Castle Garden and Ellis Island), 1820-1957

Validator (claude-opus-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 3/4, tier record.
This is the manifest page for the S.S. Kaiser Wilhelm II, sailing from Bremen on August 12, 191_. On line 28 the passenger Petr Konečny, 19, of Kostany, Bohemia, gives his nearest relative as his mother, Veronika Konečny, of Kostany, Bohemia. That places a Veronika at Kostany at the time of sailing, which fits the residence claim. The record uses the surname Konečný rather than Kadlec, which is likely her married name, but the manifest itself does not confirm the maiden name.
Matches: Line 28: Petr Konečny, age 19, glazier ("glaser"), Austrian, Bohemian, last residence Kostany, Bohemia; Nearest relative column, line 28: "moth: Konečny Veronika, Kostany, Bohemia"; Given name Veronika and the place Kostany, Bohemia both match the claim; Kostany is the German/historical spelling of Košťany in Bohemia, so the place is consistent
Limits: The record names her Veronika Konečny, presumably her married surname. Linking her to Veronika Kadlec depends on her identification as Petr Konečný's mother elsewhere in the database.; She appears only as the nearest relative of a passenger. No age or birth year is given for her, so the 1867 birth cannot be checked.; The sailing year is partly cut off ("August 12, 191_"), so the residence can only be dated to the 1910s.; This is a single manifest page. Any supporting index or transcription was not provided.
