1950 United States Federal Census

Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 3/4, tier record.
The image shows the 1950 census sheet for Manitowoc, Wisconsin (ED 36-48B). Line 10 reads "Konecny Frank", head, male, age 54, married, born Czechoslovakia, a welder in shipbuilding. This matches the name Frank/František Konecny and fits a birth around 1895. The record does not show the Czech diacritics or any dates beyond the age, so it supports the name in its English form and is consistent with the rest.
Matches: Line 10 of the sheet lists "Konecny Frank" as head of household, Manitowoc, Wisconsin; Birthplace written as Czechoslovakia, which fits a Czech-born František; Age 54 gives a birth year of about 1895 to 1896, which fits the claimed 1895; Wife Lydia and son Louis are listed in the household
Limits: The claim concerns the name only. The census shows the anglicized form "Frank Konecny", not the Czech form František Konečný.; The age of 54 in April 1950 could mean birth in 1895 or early 1896, so it does not fix the birth year exactly.; Nothing on this page links the man to the 1976 death date or to a specific birthplace in Bohemia or Moravia.; Handwriting is the enumerator's and the sheet is somewhat hard to read, so the spelling is read from a small scan.
