The image of the WWII draft card is readable and shows Joseph John Konecny residing at 1424 N 19th St, Milwaukee, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. Age 40 with birth date 17 Feb 1901 means the registration took place on or after 17 Feb 1941, and the form revision (1-1-42) places it in 1942. The residence claim for 1942 in Milwaukee is directly supported.
Matches: Name Joseph John Konecny matches Joseph Konecny; Residence given as 1424 N 19th St, Milwaukee, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin; Date of birth Feb 17, 1901 fits the 1901 birth year in the claim; Form revision 1-1-42 and age 40 indicate registration in 1942 (the Feb 1942 'old man's' registration); Wife Agnes Konecny at the same address; employed at Allis Chalmers, Milwaukee
Limits: The card is undated in the visible portion; the 1942 date is inferred from the form revision, age 40, and the birth-date range, since the reverse side is not shown; Does not show death year (1985) or confirm that this is the same Joseph Konecny without other evidence on his wife or parents; Birthplace is given only as 'Bohemia'
