I think it can be helpful to start with what you know and work back from there.  Do you know when/where he died?  If his children are deceased, what were their names and dates of birth & death?

The passenger list that you mentioned indicates that he was going to Johnstown, Pennsylvania to join his brother-in-law Antonino Ruvolo.  Do you know if he stayed in that area at all?  It also says his wife was Rosa Baglione and she was still in Italy.  Did she come over later?

It appears maybe I gave you the wrong Antonino DiNatale possibly

There was only one passenger list that I saw fit the date and place of birth that you mentioned.  Where did you get the information about his year of his arrival and birth place?

There is a possible death of a young child of Antonino and Antonetta here - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:24MM-TNG

The death index at www.italiangen.org gives a death of an Antonino Dinatale, age 40, on 12 Jan. 1936 in Kings County.

There is a newspaper article apparently about his death here - https://bklyn.newspapers.com/image/52687594/?terms=Dinatale  It says that there was a fight about a card game, Anthony/Antonino chased his best friend with a knife after the friend criticized his playing, and the friend shot him.

On www.fultonhistory.com, there is an article about Antonino's killing which gives similar information as the other one and states that his address was 301 Court St.  If you use an exact phrase search for "Giacomo Salvato" (the shooter), it should come up.  There is a Giacomo Salvato on Court Street in the 1940 census - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KQR9-MP4 - so maybe he didn't go to prison due to self-defense?

Considering that address, this seems to be another death of a young child of Antonino & Antoinette.  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:2WRW-XFF

Antonino DiNatale and Antoinette Santa Maria got their marriage license on 2 Sep. 1925 in Brooklyn.  The license number was 15450.  If you are going to order a vital record to try to get further back for these two, this may be the best one to get.  There is more information about what is on the marriage license here - https://www.reclaimtherecords.org/records-request/1/

This is Antoinette on the 1925 NY state census - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KSSR-4VV  The image shows she was at 149 Sackett St., the same address noted in the newspaper listing their marriage license.  It said she had been in the US for 17 years, was an alien, and her occupation was housework. 

The head of the household was Nicolas Deluca - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KSSR-4VS  This seems to be the Deluca family in the 1930 census - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X7XC-KQD  This seems to be Nicolas' death - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:2WTC-ZJC 

The Delucas have a niece named Antoinette Deluca with them in 1920 - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MJPT-7VR https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33S7-9RJN-QRL?i=5&cc=1488411  Not sure if that was her with the wrong surname or a different niece.

It looks like Nicolas' wife Grace/Grazia was the Santa Maria connection.  This appears to be their marriage record - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:249C-BTF

A birth of one of their children:  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:2WZG-BTM

Deaths of two of their children, one of which mentions the 149 Sackett address:
