This is the Norddeutscher Lloyd manifest of the S.S. Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, sailing from Bremen to New York, apparently in October 1901. Line 10 clearly names Vaclav Tauber, age 26, married, a miner from Bohemia bound for Illinois. Lines 11–12 list Františka and Jaroslav Tauber travelling with him. The record directly states the name. The age fits a birth around 1875, within about a year of the claimed 1876, though the life dates themselves are not shown here.
Matches: Line 10 reads "Vaclav Tauber", which matches Václav Tauber apart from the diacritic; Age 26 on a voyage dated about 1901 gives a birth year of about 1874–1875, close to the claimed 1876; Male, married, miner, nationality Bohemia; destination Illinois; Travelling with Františka Tauber (line 11, age 26, married) and Jaroslav (line 12, age 2), apparently his wife and child; Going to join a brother-in-law, Václav Skrejkovski (spelling uncertain), at 4938 Winchester Ave, Chicago
Limits: A passenger list gives an age, not a birth date, and says nothing about the 1956 death year; The sailing date in the header is only partly legible (10/1?/1901), so the implied birth year is approximate; The last-residence entry for line 10 is hard to read and cannot confirm a home village; Nothing on the page explicitly ties this passenger to the database person beyond name and approximate age
