Thomas DiBella was the son of the family boss Salvatore DiBella. Born in Brooklyn. Most suspect he was made in the late 1920s, only one source that has a habit of getting date wrong but the events right, claims DiBella was made when Joe Profaci became the official boss of the family, and was made at the tail end of the war. Gambling and loansharking were his two main source of his income. Moved to Staten Island in the 1940s eventually becoming capo of the crew, extortion, and union inflitrator During the 1950s was investigated by the Government in suspecting him as a communist supporter. He was the official boss from 1973 to 1980.

Joe Yacovelli got his start in New Jersey. A knuckle dragger. Street tough. May have actually been part of Newark family.
