Transcription and reasoning
Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 3/4, tier record.
The register page is readable. Entry no. 92 records Blanca (Blazina) Tauber, daughter of Joseph Tauber and Anna Kral, born 10 July 1911 and baptized 3 Sept 1911. The name, year and baptism date match the claim. The place is not visible on this page, so it rests on the collection's origin; the first-name spelling differs from Blanche but is a reasonable variant.
Matches: Entry no. 92 gives the surname Tauber, father Joseph, mother Anna Kral; Baptism date is 3 Sept 1911, which matches the claim; Birth date is 10 July 1911, which fits a person born in 1911; First name 'Blanca (Blazina)' is a plausible variant of Blanche
Limits: The page shows no parish name or place, so Collinsville, Madison, Illinois cannot be confirmed from the image; the Ancestry collection is only for the Diocese of Springfield; The first name is written 'Blanca (?) (Blazina)', not Blanche, and there is no middle initial L; The entry does not name Blanche's later spouse or other identifying details, and the parents are not named in the claim; The page header and register do not show the church name, and the file context does not state it
