Some of the greatest examples of these types of "transfers" or "re-affiliations" can be seen between the east coast and west coast (California families,) namely San Jose, San Francisco and L.A.

For example; Dominick Anzalone and Vito Adragna were both originally card-carrying members of the Pittsburgh, PA Family, until they later relocated out to California and transferred their Cosa Nostra memberships to the San Jose crew. Capo Angelo Marino was another former Pittsburgh member. Stefano Zoccoli was another.

Another was soldier Salvatore Cerrito, and even his brother, Joe Cerrito (who later actually became boss of the S.J. Family) were originally soldiers of Brooklyn's Profaci Family. Soldier Frank Buffa was another one who relocated from the Brooklyn crew out to San Jose.

The California families are replete with examples of fellas who transferred their memberships to those crews after moving out west.

But there are many other inducted members who fit the same exact profiles sprinkled throughout other borgatas across the country.
