Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 2/4, tier index.
The citation is an obituary for John F. Konecny printed 12 Nov 1965, which is consistent with a death on 11 Nov 1965. However, no obituary text is provided, so the place of death, the date and the identity cannot be confirmed from what is shown. It is a thin, consistent source rather than one that states the claim.
Matches: Obituary of John F. Konecny dated 12 Nov 1965, one day after the claimed death date of 11 Nov 1965; Publication date fits a death on 11 Nov 1965
Limits: No image or transcript text supplied, so the death date, place (Clewiston, Hendry, Florida) and age/birth year cannot be checked against the obituary's wording; Obituary publication date only gives an upper bound for the death date; it does not state it; Online transcription (2manitowoc.com), not an image of the original newspaper; Manitowoc, Wisconsin newspaper with no stated link to Clewiston, Florida in the evidence provided
