The citation points to the 1910 census in Collinsville, Madison County, Illinois, under the name "Towny Tauber". Without the image or transcribed details, nothing shows an age near 23 or an Illinois birthplace for Elizabeth Janousek. The different name might be a relative or a mangled transcription (e.g. "Tonny"/"Anna"), so the record is only weakly consistent and needs checking.
Matches: 1910 census in Collinsville Ward 3, Madison County, Illinois, a plausible place for a family with Czech surname variants; Citation is a census, which normally gives age and birthplace, so it could support an Illinois birth around 1887
Flags: Citation names "Towny Tauber", not Elizabeth Janousek; the link may be through a married or maiden name or a transcription error, and the text does not explain it
Limits: No image or transcription is attached, so no age or birthplace for Elizabeth can be read; The citation gives only a name and location, not the content of the entry; A census gives an age, not a birth date, so "about 1887" can at most be implied; The household member who is Elizabeth cannot be identified from the text; Elizabeth's connection to the Tauber household is not stated
