Hi Devaney1886,
Have looked at passenger lists for Patrick/Patk Taafe but not many at all showing for that timeframe I'm afraid. Of course there are so many spelling variations possible.
Early passenger lists have very little detail to be able to positively identify people but https://familysearch.org/ has a selection of census and other records that might help your search in the USA.
The first US census that Patrick and Mary could show on is the 1900 (1890 was almost entirely destroyed by fire) but nothing is springing out at the moment.
Did the family have connections to the USA ?

I just had in my head that if the younger lady were a suffragette and consequently boycotted the census, then perhaps all of her household members, including servants were omitted.
