I am not locating any manifest for the Prinzess Irene prior to 1900...
Are you certain of the date of arrival?

Do you know if Antonino/Antonio was ever naturalized? We might be able to find a reference to his arrival.

1900 census is below. Domenica and Giuseppina birth place likely Roccarainola -- province Napoli -- region Campania. Census shows Antonio immigration year as 1895; Domenica's as 1899; indicates Antonio arrived first, followed by his wife and daughter. Domenica's maiden name might be Miele which is found in Roccarainola.
