The image of the original draft card is readable. It shows Tony Tauber, age 29, born August 6, 1887 in Mostce, Bohemia, a miner living at 313 Strong Ave, Collinsville, with a wife and five children dependent on him. The registrar's report is dated June 5, 1917, Collinsville, Madison County, Illinois. Every detail in the claim matches the card.
Matches: Name "Tony Tauber" is a variant of Antonín Tauber; Date of birth August 6, 1887, matches the claim; Birthplace "Mostce, Bohemia" matches the claimed "Mostce"; Occupation: miner (E. St. Louis & O'Fallon RR Co, Mine #2 near O'Fallon); Dependents: "Wife and five children", as in the claim; Registrar's report dated June 5, 1917, Collinsville Precinct 5, Madison County, Illinois, matches claimed year and place; Age 29 matches a birth in 1887
Limits: The card does not give a death date, so it says nothing about the 1939 end of the life span; It does not prove that this Tony Tauber is the same Antonín Tauber, but name, birth date and birthplace agree; "Mostce" is the handwritten reading of the birthplace; the modern Czech place name is not given on the card
