When did John Torrio left NYC for CHicago? Was it in 1909 or 1912 (I read both of them several times)?

What was Frankie Yale's real name? Francesco Uale or Francesco Ioele? Somebody a picture of his grave or something with his name on it?
Ioele, it's a little bit strange...

Torrio left Brooklyn for Chicago in 1909. Yale's real name was Uale.

Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.

The spelling of the last name changes, depending on with whom you're talking.

Here's his alleged grave. Its definitely from the correct cemetery (see street name behind the grave). It spells his last name as Ioele.

Two true diehards, with two different answers: let the game begin!

No, truly, I'm curious too. What is the correct name? Or is it both correct?
