William was the son of Feide Raphael and Amelia/Anna. Feide wasn’t born in New York though. I can’t really see what it says on the 1870 census but it looks like it starts with K.
Amelia’s parents were Irish.

Yes, that’s pretty much an unusual name. The “Raphael” are often Jewish (Dutch Jews)
Actually, I attached that 1870 census myself, but I’m not 100% sure it corresponds to William C. Raphael, so I decided to just put that his parents were born in New York, which appears in all of William’s censuses.
Finding the 1880 census in which William appears would be key.
And regarding the surname, it’s a tricky one, it has multiple origins.
Her mother’s birth name is Diane Mary (Mulcahy)
Her maternal grandparents are Ann Danaher and Gerard Mulcahy.
