1940 United States Federal Census

Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 3/4, tier record.
The image shows a readable 1940 census page. Lines 7–11 give the Konecny household, with head Frank, 44, born in Czechoslovakia. That fits František Konecny (b. 1895) as an anglicized name and an age-implied birth year of about 1895–96. The record supports the surname and a plausible first name, but cannot show the Czech form or the full identity.
Matches: Household 141 on Rankin St, Manitowoc, lists the surname Konecny (written "Konecny") with the head given as Frank, which is a normal English form of František; Head is male, age 44 (born about 1895–96), born in Czechoslovakia, which fits a František Konecny born 1895; Wife Lillian 45 and sons Edward, John and Louis are in the household, all born in Wisconsin; Census place, page 7A and ED 36-26 match the citation detail
Limits: The census gives the anglicized form Frank, not František; The claim is about a name only, and the census does not show the Czech form; The census gives age, not a birth date, so it cannot confirm 1895 exactly; It says nothing about death in 1976; Handwriting for the first name is slightly hard to read (Frank), and the database person's family is not shown here to confirm the household is his
