The card is a readable INS Soundex index card (Form I-1 P). It names Mary Hejnal of 1220 W. Reservoir Ave., Milwaukee, Wis., born Oct. 16, 1903 in Czechoslovakia and naturalized Feb. 15, 1940 in Milwaukee County Circuit Court. The birth year and the Wisconsin residence fit the claim for Mary Konecny (1903–1989), but the surname differs. Linking this card to her requires other evidence, such as a marriage record showing Hejnal as her maiden or married name, or the full petition.
Matches: Given name Mary; Born Oct. 16, 1903, which matches the claimed birth year 1903; Address 1220 W. Reservoir Ave., Milwaukee, Wis., so residence in Wisconsin; Naturalized Feb. 15, 1940, Circuit Court, Milwaukee Co., Milwaukee, Wis.; Country of birth Czechoslovakia, which fits a Czech surname such as Konečný
Flags: Surname on the card is Hejnal, not Konecny. Nothing on the card links the two names, though one could be a maiden or married name.
Limits: This is a Soundex index card to a naturalization petition, not the petition itself; The card gives no spouse, parents or arrival details to confirm identity; The residence is shown only as of about 1940, the naturalization date; the claim has no date
