San Francisco.
The San Francisco earthquake in 1906 decimated the leadership in the city. Before that it represented all west coast mafia, then the Colorado families represented all mafia west of them. The Camorra still remained strong, and the Calabrians were becoming stronger.
Early 1910s the closest to a mafia family was the Alioto/Ingrassia/Lazio family connection. 1914 feud with the Pedone/Lafata group, a Camorra gang that lasted till 1924 with the killing of Rosalino Lafata.

Lorenzo Lazio 1917-1919
Nunzio Mannina 1920-1924, sent by New Orleans, then stepped down once the Pedone and Lafata group were no longer a threat. Remained in Bay area until his death in the 1960s.
1924-1928 unknown, possible that Giuseppe Alioto or Luciano Sabella may have taken over. By 1928 Frank Lanza was firmly in control of the Sicilians in the Bay area.
1928-1932 mainly Calabrians versus the Camorra, with Salvatore Lima head of the Calabrians aligning with Frank Lanza and Joe Pizza (Dominic Lonardo) in 1928.
