The attached image is the 1920 census for Manitowoc Town, sheet 6A, ED 110. The last entry, line 50, is Konecny, Frank, head, age 24, born Bohemia, with Bohemian parents, immigrated 1912. Frank is the usual English form of František, and the age fits 1895. The name is supported, while identity with this specific person rests on those matching details.
Matches: Line 50 of sheet 6A reads "Konecny, Frank", head of household, which is the English form of František Konecny; Age 24 at the January 1920 enumeration implies a birth around 1895–96, which fits the 1895 birth year; Born in Bohemia, with both parents born in Bohemia and Bohemian mother tongue, which fits a Czech František; Immigrated 1912 and a petition for papers (PA) is noted; a gas welder at a shipyard in Manitowoc, Wisconsin
Limits: The census gives the anglicized "Frank", not "František", so the Czech form comes from the database; The census gives an age, not a birth date, and does not show the 1976 death; The handwriting on the last line is slightly faint; the surname reads Konecny, but the spelling is not perfectly crisp; The record does not link this man to the specific František in the database beyond name, age and birthplace
What it supports
- Person — František Konecny
