Rob,

I'll see if I can find the other manifests for Concetta...

I'll also keep looking for a manifest for Cono

For reference...

Here is the manifest you found with Cono and his two sons, Vito, 16, and Antonio, 18, arriving in 1904.
It does state that they are citizens/subjects of Italy. No mention of being a US citizen which would be noted on the manifest.

Found what could possibly be Cono's earliest manifest - 1887
These manifests list very little information...but this one looks pretty good...

Passenger: Cono Russo, 32, laborer (age is about right)
From Sala Consilina, Italy (this is actually an adjacent town to Teggiano!)
Sailing on the SS Chandernagor from Marseille, France (many earlier ships did not depart Italy)
Arriving NY 8 February 1887

He's on line 197
