1930 United States Federal Census

Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 3/4, tier record.
The image shows the 1930 census sheet 36A, Chicago, Cook, Illinois, ED 16-499. Line 46 lists James Tauber, 54, born Bohemia, immigrated 1901, with wife Frances, which fits a Václav Tauber born about 1876. The residence in Chicago in 1930 is supported. The identification as Václav rests on the name variant and age, not on an explicit statement.
Matches: 1930 census, Chicago (Ward 13), Cook County, Illinois, sheet 36A, ED 16-499, matching the citation detail; Line 46: James Tauber, Head, male, white, age 54, married, born Bohemia (both parents Bohemia), immigrated 1901, carpenter on a railroad; wife Frances, 54, born Bohemia; Age 54 implies a birth year of about 1876, matching Václav Tauber (1876–1956), with James as a plausible English form of Václav; Lines 48-50: a separate household headed by James J. Tauber, 28, with wife Mildred and daughter Mildred, probably a son living nearby
Limits: The census does not give the name Václav; the link to James relies on the name equivalence and the birth year from his age; The image gives no exact birth date or place within Bohemia, so identity rests on age, birthplace and location; The surname is written Taubr or Tauber, so it needs checking against the other records for this family; Residence is shown only as Chicago in 1930; the street address is hard to read in this image
