Roy was originally with a Lucchese mobster called mike the hammer Dellacagna. He was the guy who brought Roy around the Lukes. Roy was an asocciate of either the Vario crew (from the goodfellas) or the 19th hole crew( Amuso and casso crew in Bensonhurst). Those were the two Brooklyn Lucchese crews. In my opinion Mike the hammer was a soldier in the 19th crew, so that would make Roy an asocciate of that crew. The Vario crew was the strongest crew in 60s (East NY/Brownsville/Canarsie/South ozone park) all famillies considering.
