I'm pretty sure Irene, Lorena are the same.I double checked the Irene, to be sure that's what it looked like.Victor was a stretch to read on that census, so it may have or may not have been that.It was quite common to switch use of first and middle names as time went on, so the name might have had Victor for first or middle, and Sylvester the other way.
Seeing that they seemed to stay in the same area, I began looking just at the Fis* located in Derry, Mif*, Pennsylvania on the searches and then checking for names that looked reasonable in the hit list and looking for what looked good there.Wild cards and incomplete name searching often pulls up some that using full name may miss.
