The citation points to an obituary of John F. Konecny from November 1965, which fits the claimed death year. No obituary text is provided, so the birth date of 26 Feb 1920 and the Manitowoc birthplace cannot be verified. The record is consistent with the person but does not state the claim.
Matches: Obituary of John F. Konecny dated 12 Nov 1965 fits the claimed 1965 death year; Source is a Manitowoc newspaper, which fits the claimed Manitowoc birthplace
Limits: No image or transcription text is supplied, so the obituary's actual wording (birth date, birthplace, age) cannot be checked; The citation detail alone does not show whether the obituary gives 26 February 1920 or Manitowoc as the birthplace; The source is a website transcription of a newspaper obituary, not an original record; Obituaries often give age or birthplace only loosely, so the exact birth date may not be stated; The publication details are generic (n.p., n.d.)
