The card, filed under K 525 (the Soundex code for Konecny), names Joseph Konecny, born Feb. 17, 1901 in Czechoslovakia, living at 1424 N. 19th St., Milwaukee, Wis. He was naturalized Feb. 15, 1940 in the Milwaukee County Circuit Court. This states a Wisconsin residence outright, and the birth date fits the claimed 1901–1985 lifespan. It is an index abstract, and the address is undated, though it most likely reflects about 1940.
Matches: Family name 'Konecny', given name 'Joseph', matching the claimed person; Address given as 1424 N. 19th St., Milwaukee, Wis., which places him in Wisconsin; Born Feb. 17, 1901, which fits the 1901 birth year in the claim; Naturalized Feb. 15, 1940 in the Circuit Court of Milwaukee County, Milwaukee, Wis., another Wisconsin connection; Country of birth Czechoslovakia, fitting the Czech surname form Konečný
Limits: This is a Soundex index card abstracted from the naturalization petition, not the petition itself; The card gives no date for the address; the residence can only be placed around the 1940 naturalization; The claim records no date, so the card cannot show how long he lived in Wisconsin; Death year 1985 cannot be checked from this card
