Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): supports, confidence 4/4, tier record.
The 1950 census sheet shows Joseph Konecny at line 108 as head of household, aged 50, married, born in Bohemia, working as a welder at a boiler factory in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This matches the residence, occupation, relationship and marital status in the claim. The age implies a birth year of 1899-1900, against the claimed 1901, which is within normal census error.
Matches: Line 108 reads Konecny, Joseph, Head, age 50, married, born Bohemia; Occupation is Welder, industry Boiler Factory, matching the claimed occupation; State is Wisconsin, county Milwaukee, place Milwaukee, ED 73-54, sheet 11, matching the citation detail; Marital status is "mar." (married), with wife Agnes, 46; Age 50 in April 1950 implies a birth year of about 1899-1900, close to the claimed 1901; Household includes sons Robert, Walter and Joseph, all born in Wisconsin
Flags: Age 50 implies birth around 1899-1900, about a year earlier than the claimed 1901. This is within the tolerance for a census age, but worth noting.
Limits: The census gives an age, not a birth date, so it cannot confirm 1901 exactly; The record does not identify this Joseph Konecny as the person who lived 1901–1985; that rests on the family details; The handwriting is slightly hard to read in places, but the key entries are legible
