This is great.

Juuuust one question: Is there a way to see them bigger?

Good job.

Wouldn't an "unofficial boss" be the acting boss, which Vinny TV is? Not sure why Basciano is labeled that.

Right click, select "save image as", save it to your desktop, and double left click the desktop icon that is created (it will show up as "BonannoCosaNostraFamily"). It will show up in Windows Photo Viewer; left click on the little magnifying glass thingy in Windows Photo Viewer. You can zoom in and out with that, but it's low res.

You can get the high res version from Mukremin, which I would recommend. When he sends it to you, do the same thing (save it, open it, zoom in and out as you wish).

That's if you have Windows, mind. If you got a Mac or something I can't help you.

Yes you are right, i forgot to remove that. He is a former one.
send me a PM with your e-mail address so i can send a high res one. Other families will folow soon.

BTW Ivy, do you see any major error on the chart?

Good job Mukremin though I am surprised Vincent Asaro just a soldier? I thought he was a powerful guy.

I just got the hi-res version and I can't recommend getting it strongly enough. The pictures look great even if you zoom in real close with Windows Photo Viewer.

There is much speculation on Vincent Asaro, some put him on the top spot. I once had him as possible boss, but we dont got enough sources to confirm this.

And the Colombo Family is done, take a look.

Mukremin, what happened with posting them in high resolutions?

Fixed it, check first post for high-res versions.

hey murk, when is the philly one going to be updated around? are they on the list?

RG, yeah i plan to update all of the charts i made. It will be later this week, i need to gather information on the philly mafia.

Thanks Mukremin! Will replace them in my collection.

Btw, at the Gambino family chart. Isn't that guy listed as consigliere actually Andy Mush from the Colombos?

Is he? I always thought it was Vernace? I know he hasnt got many pictures...

I'm not sure. I just noticed Ivyleague has posted the picture in another topic. Maybe he can shed some light...

Looking at all those guys, most of them don't look very bright. Talking about the 'general attrition' hypothesis. It's not like it used to be... But looks can be deceiving though.

He posted it as Vernace? Or someone else?

Yeah they do but we know better right? We know who they are, what they do..

Nice work mukremin

The guy you have as the consigliere on the Gambino chart is Vernace.

Well, no one looks beautiful in mugshots. Look at Chin's for example - he looks like a mentally retarded guy staring at a truck that's about to run over him.

LOL! Well said. Plus, the feds love to do their raids and yank these guys out of bed in the early morning.

For what it's worth, a 2009 NY Daily News article said that the Genovese family was being led by a "rotating panel" of high-level members who had recently completed prison sentences. It said this panel included Benny Mangano, Barney Bellomo, Ernie Muscarella, and Larry Dentico. A more recent article, from this past January, suggested that Tino Fiumara had also been on the panel before he died.

When Danny Leo was identified as the acting boss of the family back in 2006, it was said that Muscarella and Dentico had helped Leo to conduct a recent making ceremony. The more I look at it, I'm starting to wonder if Leo came from and eventually took over the Ardito crew.

John Gotti did. And Vinny 'Gorgeous' too.

Which of the other families do you guys want to be updated first?

I'm looking over these charts again and there seem to be three prevailing "looks" for made guys:

1) Many of them have a "dumb thug" look as was mentioned
2) Many of them have a regular blue collar guy look
3) A few of them, for some reason, look like accountants (seriously, Cefalu and Vernace could pass for H&R Block employees)

Ha is there really a Genovese soldier called Steve Buscemi??

Well some of them have the typical Italian mobster actor look, they would do great acting in real movies.

And yes, there is a soldier called Steve Buscemi

Mukremin, Great job on the charts!

This is what I have gathered on the current leadership:

Gambino Crime Family
Boss: Domenico "Italian Dom/Greaseball/Dom from 18th Avenue" Cefalu
Underboss: Arnold “Zeke” Squitieri (Jailed)
Consigliere: Bartolomeo "Bobby/Bobby Glasses" Vernace (Jailed, Under Indictment)
New Jersey Faction Boss: Alphonse "Funzi" Sisca

Genovese Crime Family

Boss: Vacant
Three-Man Ruling Panel: Tino "The Greek" Fiumara (Dead), Others Unknown
Acting Boss: Daniel "Danny the Lion" Leo (Jailed)
Street Boss: Liborio "Barney" Bellomo
Underboss: Venero "Benny Eggs" Mangano
Consigliere: Dominick "Quiet Dom" Cirillo
New Jersey Faction Boss: Vacant since death of Tino "The Greek" Fiumara in 2010

Bonanno Crime Family

Unofficial Boss: Vincent “Vinny Gorgeous” Basciano (Life Imprisonment x 2)
Acting Boss: Vincent "Vinny T.V." Badalamenti or Vincent "Vinny" Asaro
Underboss: Nicholas “Nicky Mouth” Santora
Consigliere: Anthony "T.G." Graziano (Jailed)
Acting Consigliere: Anthony “Fat Tony” Rabito
New Jersey Faction Boss: Joseph Sammartino Sr.

Lucchese Crime Family

Boss: Vittorio “Little Vic/Vic the Terminator” Amuso (Life Imprisonment)
Ruling Committee/Panel: Aniello "Neil" Migliore, Matthew Madonna (Under Indictment), Joseph "Joey Dee" DiNapoli (Under Indictment)
Underboss: Steven "Stevie Wonder/Wonderboy/Herbie" Crea
Consigliere: Joseph "Joe C." Caridi
New Jersey Faction Boss: Ralph Vito Perna (Under Indictment)

Colombo Crime Family

Boss: Carmine “Junior/The Snake/Immortal” Persico (Life Imprisonment)
Acting Boss: Alphonse "Little Allie Boy/Allie Boy/The Kid" Persico (Life Imprisonment)
Street Boss: Andrew "Andy Mush" Russo (Jailed, Under Indictment)
Underboss: John “Sonny” Franzese (Jailed)
Acting Underboss: Benjamin "The Claw" Castellazzo (Jailed, Under Indictment)
Consigliere: Richard "Ritchie Nerves" Fusco (Jailed)

When it comes to the Genovese, we should put "Unkown" rather than "Vacant"...simply 'cos we know how they tricky they are.

The official boss position most likely is vacant. After Chin died, the family probably saw no need to install a new one. Same for the other families. Chin is dead. Massino flipped. Amuso and Persico are in prison for life. The Gambinos making Cefalu the new boss was rather surprising when acting bosses and ruling panels seem to be the new way of doing things.

Kind of Surprised Gambino didn't get the spot since he was on that 3 man panel and the only one of the three man panel not in prison, but i guess the guy is in real bad shape health wise. When does Marino get out? He's a real powerhouse in that family and probably has the most support among the crews. Doesn't Johnny G get out soon? He's Marino's guy so we'll see what happens when he's on the street again. But maybe Cefalu will prove to be a good choice. You can't get much lower then Pete Gotti.

Ivy, you don't think someone has to be running the westside behind the scenes? Those guys are as slick as they come so we'll have to see somewhere down the road. Probably not until we get a high level rat will we know who the top guy or guys are.

That's just the way he wanted it, though. Isn't it?

Danny Marino gets out in August of 2014.

Ivy, do you see any major error on the charts for the 5 families? The upper echelon is 100% correct right? At least so far we know.

Those are nice charts you made Mukremin. Looks like you put some time into making them.

Thanks LeroyJones! Yeah.. it takes some time, but thanks to communities like this the research does not take to much time. Putting together all the puzzles is the real work and put them on the charts. Ive printed some of these and spread it in my town

Murk, is the philly one next up?

The Philly and New England.

Looks good to me. Just a few things...

In the Genovese family, I believe Anthony Romanello is in the same crew as Patsy Parello. Barney Bellomo, Ernie Muscarella, and Artie Nigro all come from the same crew. Alan Longo was acting for Allie Malagone. And Sammy Aparo was acting for Ross Gangi. Though that may not matter depending on how you're doing the chart.

In the Lucchese family, Martin Taccetta and Ralph Perna are in the same crew. Ralph was last identified as captain.

But like I said, the rest looks fine. Good work.

Great charts Mukremin. Stellar work. As always.

I find it can be easy to mix up certain pictures if they'd been improperly identified at some point in time. You've done a great job matching them all up as far as I can tell.



Great point. In a sense, the position could be considered obsolete in NY, since the ruling panel has proven so effective in relation. Of course, Cefalu seems an exception, as Ivy mentioned with every official boss imprisoned. But with the string of names cited for each families admin. over recent years, Occams Razor tells us that the Feds have the right info, and there is no one "mastermind" controlling everything for the Genovese at this point.

Although some will contend that Sal Montagna is/was a Machiavellian genius that anticipated and exploited circumstance to navigate his way into becoming the Supreme Ruler of the Bonanno Family and/or Canada...but I digress.

Yeah, Ivy. They all came up with the 116th Street crew. They don't operate out of that area anymore, but they're still pretty cohesive. So if Mukremin wants to add "116th Street" crew over certain family members, that'd be great. Of course it's up to him.

But great job, Mukremin. That's very tedious work .

Thanks for all the feedback, i have noted them and will update the charts as soon as possible. Together well make a near perfect chart

The most powerful crew around ( 116th crew) Are they also the west side crew? I hear people talking about the west side crew( Genovese) alot and i thought it was these guys just a secondary name.. Where do they operate now and are they active?

The term "West Side Crew" has become a generic term for the older Genovese guys over the years. But to be technical, the "116th Street Crew" was Fat Tony's uptown crew, where the "West Side Crew" was Gigante's West Village crew (mainly around Sullivan Street).

Fellas, what other known crews who are still around could be added other than the "116th Street Crew".

Adding all the persons on the right crew or group can be tough on these charts. I would need to reorganize things.

IVY:
Martin Taccetta and Ralph Perna are listed in the same crew as captains already.

And as for the Genoveses, the only way to put them in the same spot is beneath each other. I will look into that.

EDIT: heres the philly chart i had made long ago, its not accurate. But i will use this as a base.
http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s147/mukremin/PhiladelphiaCosaNostraFamily.jpg

Pics look great.. I guess for chart we have to fix it up alittle.. Mousie is def not a soldier.. Underboss and Staino is the Consg..

Acting boss : mazzone

Acting underboss: chang

Capos - lance / scoops / what about nicodemio? capo yet?

As far as the Philly hierarchy goes, the recent indictment labeled Ligambi the boss and Massimino the underboss. Both Staino and Angellina were simply labeled "high ranking members" and Lucibello was labeled as a "soldier."

And just for the record, Joey Merlino was acting boss before going to prison.

Thanks guys for the information regarding the Philly mob, i was wondering if this topic can be made a sticky?

Second that.

See first page for updated versions, there have been some minor changes.
- 2010 changed to 2011
- Passed away members have been removed
and other minor changes.

(working on New England and Philadelphia families.)

New England Family:
http://www.FreeUploadShare.com/DOWNLOAD/e05cb737/New England Patriarca Cosa Nostra Family.jpg

PM Geoff or SC .

Thank you Pizzaboy, and of course SC. I realy appreciate it.

See first page for the other families, those charts have not been updated since months. They are the same when i made them. So all feedback considering the other families is also welcome, have you information to share? Please do.

That's a kind gesture of the admins to Mukremin. This topic deserves to be sticky.

I heard Nicky Scarfo Jr is now a Capo in NJ, I don't know if this is true but some law officials said it.

He's a reputed capo in the Lucchese cf.

Actually some sources state that Scarfo Jr is currently a soldier.

Nicky Scarfo apparently became pretty good friends with Little Vic Amuso in prison. After the failed hit on his son in '89, he moved up north and was apparently inducted into the Lucchese Family during the early nineties as a soldier, and later served time on gambling charges. He was also indicted recently along with Joe DiNapoli, Matthew Madonna and Ralph Perna, the last of which was identified as a fellow NJ Lucchese leader (the first two of course are panel members).

While some sources have claimed he was bumped down to soldier in '07, others continue to identify him as a captain in NJ. He's apparently pretty tight with Andrew Merola.

Sources i have read still say that he is a soldier, maybe with a bit more power.

There's conflicting info, maybe Ivy will know... Sometimes guys are called Capo's even when it blatantly isn't the case, Loads of sources still say Roy DeMeo was a capo.

What do you guys think of the other charts? Its hard to get reliable information regarding the smaller families.

Well it looks like the New England family may change to in the coming weeks, Eddie Lato and Scivola are held without bail. And when the cooperator will be identified, there will be more to follow. thats for sure.

Ivy, could you help me out with Asaro? Care to share information on him where he is labeled a possible boss or capo?

How in gods name do u view or dload these?

Mukremin's links lead to a download just click on it.

Check the first page Atothej, like Nicky said, you will be directed to a download link. Its in jpeg format, so you can view it with windows viewer. Feel free to PM if it does not work for you.

I'd like to see philly updated

Thanks

Thats the one i am working on. But i cant release it this week, because i will be absent from tuesday 1st of november untill 15 november. I will travel to Africa/Tanzania, where i will be a volunteer. Get supplies and other stuff to the local poor people. Wish me good luck you wiseguys
Will miss you all..

But i am here for 2-3 more days.
And i have made a re-release of the Commission and Apalachin chart. check first post for links. Enjoy

^^^good luck!

Good luck Mukremin! Btw, the links of the Apalachin and Commission charts are dead.

Thank you fellas!!
And the new links are up, check them again
sorry for the inconvinience.

And i will release more Commission charts, for each change of boss and seat. stay tuned

Enjoy you're time Muk. Don't let yourself get killed out there.

Good luck Muk!

good luck Mukremin, have a safe trip.

Also i was just looking over the Appalachin chart. I don't believe Phillip buccola of boston was present, he had fled back to sicily by 1954 but i believe a man by the name of Frank cucchiara was sent as boston representative.

Hello people!! its me and i am back. Did i miss anything? Major bust or something?

welcome back mukremin!

Mukremin,
hats off for your charts!
They are very nicely done.

Yes, the Europeans on this forum have formed a zip faction. They chose me as 'front capo', while furio is the real one.

We're planning to make a move on the old guard.

Thanks yigido, thank you knuckles!!

Count me in the zip faction to

Looking forward to the new charts Muk!

Nothing for nothing, but do Aussie's count as Zips?

Ok, i am done with Philly chart. Its very hard to make it, each source gives you a different hierarchy. I tried my best, check it out. And as always, feedback is welcome.

Does that mean the chart is good and accurate? Experts? Any thought on the chart? By the way, i cant edit the first post anymore.

The Board is set up now so that after 30 days you cannot make any changes to a post.

You did a nice job on all the charts!

Not even for stickies? I need to update the first post
Maybe you can do it for me?

Thanks, i try to deliver good work.

Mukremin,

Let me know when you are ready to change the first post here. I'll make a temporary adjustment so that you can edit it.

I know what ya mean, Muk. I'm trying to get them to edit my Jewish Mob Charts one, or at least have me edit it.

Heres a present for you, its the Commission chart from 1961.
It is not accurate, because i dont know who attended the meetings for Genovese while he was away. And i dont know exactly at that moment what family represented what family.
Anyway, feedback welcome and enjoy.

Why do I have to download it with that 1 stupid ass sight that's trying to jab $ from me?


I really wanna look at these, can u post them normal?

Its easy to download, most people didnt have problems with it. I can try to post them on photobucket, but it wont be high quality. I reccomend high quality.

People, anyone has more ideas on Commission charts? We could make a chart for each meeting, at least the meetings where new members were added and changes. What do you think of the latest 1961 chart?

And any special request for a chart?

Hi, I've just joined the forum.

My name is David Critchley, the author of the book "The Origins of Organized Crime in America: The New York City Mafia, 1981-1931"

The chart has two errors I can see. "Gaetano" Gagliano was Tommaso Gagliano (real name) and Luciano was simply one of the first Commission members but he wasn't "more" than that, above the others in some way.

Hello David, welcome to the forums enjoy your stay.

Thanks for the feedback, i see what you mean. His full name was:
Tomasso "Tommy Gaetano" Gagliano

The reason for Luciano to stand above them is not necessary a show of power/strength. But i will fix the other issue, any other things you would like to see? Have you saw todas charts?

Mukremin, you are a hell of a chartmaker!
I am a memberchart freak myself, but don´t know how to convert them to PDF files and to add pictures and stuff.
Is there any interest from your side, to produce charts of the NY Families from the early 80s?
We could collaborate. I could send you names.
The charts would exist of only bosses, underbosses, consiglieres and captains. Seems easier. We could name some important soldiers in there.
Does this sound interesting? Please let me know.

Guys I would love to see charts like that! I want to see the Gambino's under Castellano, would be difficult to make but good luck!

Yeah. That´s what I thought too. It would be nice to see those charts up here. That is if Mukremin is interested of course.

Thats a good idea, we can work together on those charts. What about a chart for all the New York families during the Commission case? So were talking about 1985-86 and further.

Like you said we will only focus on the top hierarchy, and perhaps important up and coming soldiers.

His nickname was "Tommy" but the Gaetano bit wasn't used to my knowledge. I think this Gaetano angle came from faulty research later on. So it was Tommaso "Tommy" Gagliano.

There is a genuine photo of him in my book that you can use. If you do, would you mind giving me a credit line (tell them where it came from)?

You are right, on the internet you got different sources showing a different name etc.

But if i use it, i will surely give credit

People, heres an early christmas present for you. With the wonderful idea of HairyKnuckles, and positive reaction from Nicky! I am happy to release the Gambino Cosa Nostra family chart from late 1985.

And i want to thank HairyKnuckles for his support, helping me finding good pictures and information. Thumbs up mate!!

I hope youll enjoy it:

Gambinos: 151! (pretty popular)
Colombos: 76! (this shows the interest on the Colombo family)
Bonanno: 202 hits! big winner.
Not to mention New England: 159 Hits!

Very nice work Mukremin!

You should charge people to watch your stuff!

No, that means I would have to not be charged because I helped with 40% of the pics.

So Thank You from the heart.

Thanks Mukremin!

I think around that time there could of been 300-400 guys in the Gambino's, I read it perhaps in the five families book.

Yes i was thinking about the size at that time, but i am not sure if they ever had around 400 members.

Capeci says that they had around 250-300 at max, even during Carlo Gambino and Castellano.

I think 250-300 members at that time is the correct figure.
FBI documents seems to confirm this.
However, the number was larger back in the 50s and 60s with maybe 450 members!

Did you know that (week as the Bonannos are today), they had close to 400 members in the 50s/60s?!

I would take family membership estimates before the 1980's with a big grain of salt, since the feds really weren't keeping that close of tabs. Even the figures from journalists like Capeci or Raab don't completely agree. The families were certainly bigger at their peak in the 1950's and 1960's. But some of those numbers came from Joe Bonanno's estimates and whatnot.

400 seems a bit to much, even in the 50-60s. How in earth would they know who was made? That would mean every single of them would have to get through the ritual etc, i dont think in those times the government would know the exact difference between made men and associate.

Heres the updated chart, made some slight changes:
http://www.FreeUploadShare.com/DOWNLOAD/14c741323/1985 Gambino Cosa Nostra chart.jpg

I think Bill Bonanno mentioned 375 to 11 (or someting like that) in his favor, after being elected to consigliere in 1963.

Hmm i remember something like that, but even that is huge. Lucky for them that they have 1/3 left of their manpower.

Oke.. whats next? I plan to start on a 1985 Genovese chart, and i also want to make a commission chart of 1985 just before the Commission Case.

The Commission case was already happening in 1985. I believe it started in 1984 and ended in 1986.

Anyway, one you should never believe Bill Bonanno. This guy is full of shit.

Joe Bonanno stated his family had 300 made members. It could be that the Bonannos had that many just after the Castellammarese war. From the 1960s to early 2000s they had about 150 made men.

so muk you say that 400 made guys is to much? what about those other organizations yamaguchi-gumi, the eastern btrava's, triads etc. how is it possible that they have so many members?

You cannot compare the American Cosa Nostra with those organizations, i am just saying the government could not know exactly how many made members there were. They could have added associates to those numbers, 250-300 is a much more real number. Today that number is around 200.

now i have to ask you why isnt it possible to compare them?

American Cosa Nostra has strict rules on membership, i dont know if thats the same with those other organizations. Thats why you cannot compare it, American Cosa Nostra is unique in every aspect and thats why they were so succesful.

were succesful ? They are still succesful as far as i know.

Not the same as they were in the 50s en 60s. And they are far behind some criminal organizations.

Yea,but back to 50s and 60s they had less competition than now.

And also less organized attacks from the feds/gov.
I am working on the Genovese family chart from around 1985, stay tuned.

I think they are re-organising themselves,and they will be stronger than they are now,but yeah the mafia golden era is over.

Cant wait to see Genovese Chart

Maybe this can help u :

Thats a much older chart, cant use it for the 1985 chart. But thanks anyway

Great job on the Charts Mukremin! For the Gambino 85 chart you could use the westchester theater photo for Joseph Gambino...

Westchester theater photo

bottom left sitting down, as i'm sure you know.

Just crop it.


Excellent job Hairyknuckles for helping out! Great chart.

Nice chart of the 1985 Gambinos, Muk. It's my favorite one you made so far imo.

Thanks for the chart on KC and good job.

Thanks for the compliments guys, try to do my best for the community.

And BlackJack, i corrected the KC chart. Will release it soon.

Cleveland would be great.

Btw, Mukremin, it was apparantly estimated by the FBI that the Gambinos had 300 made members in the 1980s.

I've copied this from the real deal forum:

These are the numbers the Feds gave for 1988.

Gambino - 300 made members with 650 Associates
Genovese - 275 made members with 600 Associates
Colombo - 120 made members with 450 Associates
Lucchese - 100 made members with 500 Associates
Bonanno - 100 made members with 375 Associates

Thank you. But I should point out that it´s Mukremin who is doing the hard work.

Thanks for the figures, i forgot to edit the chart. It should be 250-300 for the Gambinos, thanks for sharing Sonny.

Well your support is much appreciated Knuckles, without you the charts would be half empty.

Heres the most recent chart on kansas City:

Awesome chart on KC and Cleveland.

Noticed on the Gambino chart you missed Peter Gotti or you had him before but took him off. Check your messages.

Saw on some YouTube Video about New York Five Families,comment how Families got some made man sent from Italy to US,and now all have +50 more memebers etc. I really doubt that happened,but still can anyone confrim it or something ? I dont think that Sicilian Mafia,Ndrangheta or whoever would send guys to US.

Is is known such thing happened long ago, i am not sure if its the case today. I dont think so, they would not do such thing. Both sides would not accept it.

Murk, the KC chart looks better, I could use the same question that Black Jack asked me and that is whether their is a paper that indicates that Vince Civella is made, I am not evening finding anything which indicates he is an associate, the same can be said about Jerry Cammisano. Not trying to be argumenative here, just trying to figure out how you select one over the other, when there is no documentation for either. I provided you the FBI report that indicates that Pete Tamburello is a made member, yet you refuse to incude him, the same can be said about Carlo Cavellaro who in the Sutera Gambling trial of 1991 was identified as made. I linked the trial of Diglarmo from 1989, which identifies Nick Labruzzo as an associate, can you point me to the paperwork which identifies him as made. As far as has been determined the last making ceremony was in 1987, when William Cammisano made several guys, to include his son. Cammisano was the acting bos Tony Civella was locked up. You keep Nate Brancato on the chart when he has been retired for years and haslate stage alheimers, where is John Glorioso who was identifed as made in the Calia/Glorioso drug trials, you wont listen to me who was raised with them, but you will Black Jack who still calls Columbus park "little Italy" when the area is now Asian.

Don't step into the mess Muk.

Why dont you mind your own business NJboy, the questions I asked are legitemate, are you and Muk dating or something which is why you feel the need to come to his aid all the time.

All I need him to do is answer the question and tell me why FBI documents and trial transcripts are valid documentation and asl where he has documentation that Vince Civella is made.

Muk, you done with the new Cleveland chart yet??

Muk here is a copy of the newpaper headlines from 1969 when 14 of the KC crew to include anthony civella, Paul Silvio, Carl Civella were supenoded when they got of the plane. The story and the trial data from Labruzzo VS the AP indicate that 4 members of the group were made. This news clipping shows Silvio and both Civellas as top MEMBERS of the mafia. Silvio is still active and runs one of the local strip clubs and businesses for the crew. His full name is Carl Paul Silvio.

The picture you show on the chart for Bennie Palmentere is not the palmentere who was made. It was his dad Baldasar "Bennie" Palmentere he owned Palmentere brothers trucking and was a secretary in Local 41 of the teamsters were he did the bidding of Nick Civella. If you will recall I reported his death about 2 months ago on this board. So you have another dead guy listed as active.

In 1985, Peter Gotti wasn´t made yet. So it would be wrong to put him on the chart.

And seven years later he was put in charge....

I was actually referring to the recent Gambino chart. There's no Peter.

I forgot him after i removed him from the boss position, will add it. And heres the corrected version of Cleveland, enjoy.

Pete Sanzo passed away last year, but other than that It's an awesome chart. Cleveland is one of those hard families to get pictures on.

As mentioned, Pete Sanzo is dead. Also, Carabbia and Iacobacci are apparently retired.

Where on earth did you hear that Oliviero is a captain?

Check the corrected version of Cleveland above, and here is also the updated Gambino 1985 chart:

And also as promised, the 1985 Genovese chart:

Next on the agenda is an update for the Buffalo family.

Very, very nice!

Too bad we can´t find more pictures though.
If we do, in the future, we´ll add them.

Thats right, its very very hard to find pictures. Maybe members here can provide us with pictures, that would be very cool.

Kudos for you Mukremin. If only you could make these charts as good looking as the ones made by Atardi over at the real deal forum. Maybe you two could form a partnership.

Thanks Sonny! Well this is the best i can do, i am not sure how Atardi makes them. Maybe some sort of special program.

Thanks again Mukster. John Iorillo and Pete Sanzo of the Cleveland Mob died last year, though.

Thats the latest Cleveland chart, fixed the issues.

Awesome chart! Can't wait to see how the Buffalo chart turns out. Merry Christmas!!!

Thanks NJboy, will keep you updated.

And i want you guys to know that i am getting e-mail from people, some threaten me and other congratulate me on these charts. Some say i am a joke etc its an interesting world isnt it?

You certainly don't need that! I appreciate all your hard work Mukremin, thanks!

I would consider it an honor if New York mafia members come threaten me because I included them in a chart.

So they are planning to sent a hit squad to the Netherlands?

Who the fuck is sad and pathetic enough to threaten you over a chart?

Muk!!!! Fantastic!!!! You are the man!!!

Muk , Thank you for all your hard work. And two word to those threaten you F**K Them and the Horse they rode in on.

Do they threaten you because of the charts?
That´s low.
Well, don´t pay any attention to them. Just keep up with the good work.

U think they could be mobsters? Who knows, it could actually be some of the guys in the pictures.

Thanks for the support guys, the whole conversation with those guys goes nowhere. Some accuse me of doing it for the FBI :S
i mean, whats this all about. I wont get into to many details, but i must say it happens more and more since 2 weeks. Not that i am scared or something, but beefing with a guy on charts? Thats low.

For the record, I have never threatened Muk in anyway. I appreciate his work, although we disagree with some areas of the KC chart.

In joey dice's defense, while he did threaten to fly out to Utah and cut my head off once, he never actually carried out the dastardly deed.

Homework for mukremin

1. New Buffalo chart
2. Put peter Gotti back on Gambino chart
3. make rat chart (ones who testified instead of all the rats would be much easier)

Best of luck to ya!

Via e-mails u can trace his/her ip then u can see where is he from,also i can get into his pc

I know Joey_Dice, i know
I am working hard to bring the charts out later this week, its going good.

And Strax, we could do that and send hitteams later on :DD

I have e-mailed George Anastasia, i send him the Philadelphia chart i made. He said its as good as the feds have. He gave his thanks and said a new mob scene went online.

Requests:

- A most likable gangsters chart
- Gangsters who preferred to wear hats chart
- Gangsters who died of syhpilis chart

^^^^thats awesome! imagine if he shows it on his mob scene and says "thanks to mukremin" that would be great

heres his mob scene

http://fivefamiliesnyc.blogspot.com/2011/12/philly-mob-boss-ligambi-was-garbage.html

Haha, we started with regular charts. And are going into multiple directions the hat one seems good.

@Dapper_Don, yeah i was surprised at first. I didnt even expect a response, let alone what he thought about it.
And todays Mob Scene was interested, not to short. I mentioned that to him, thats its to short.

Nice to hear that Anastasia takes the time to respond to his viewers. He's probably a nice guy to hang out with, not arrogant and such.

Hell no, Utah scares the hell out of me LOL.

lmaooooo

why put peter gotti back? Dom Cefalu is the official boss of that fam

I agree, Daps. What I meant is for Muk to add Peter as a member, not as a boss, because he still is a member.

Heres the link for the rat charts, first one is for New York, and the second one is for the rest. Hope you like it:

Muk, Orlando Catelli was Not a made man, just an associate of San Jose. I have solid proof on this. Stop believing those forums that are full of crap. I'll send you the info. Also, you don't have Sergio Maranghi for San Francisco.

You're a ledge Muk. Fuck those assholes beefing over bullshit, they're the same guys who come on the boards for a week, post all sorts of bullshit, argue angrily for a bit until confronted with facts, then turn around and say "Oh, but you shouldn't even be TALKING about these guys. They're good, family men, and this is SLANDER!!1! Horrible, horrible slander!! Also, John Gotti is awe$ome"

Fuck 'em Muk. Keep up the great work. And kudos on the props from George A, that sort of thing has to go a way into convincing you that your charts a worth it, no? I bet he and Jerry C get all sorts of abuse sent to them, most probably from half-ass wiseguys pissed off that they're yet to make the column.

Muk, you the man!!!!!

hey I dont know if its a problem on my end but its saying invalid file name.

the Cleveland chart is showing invalid file

Hey, Muk - what's the latest on The Chicago Outfit? Can you post that link, please?

Hi Mark, i have not made a chart on Chicago, i did not dare to make it because there allready is a fine chart. Althought its not up to date.

You do a very good job, by the way. Do you know where I could get an Outfit chart - even if it's not up to date?

Heres the link, i just found it.

That's the one I found as well. Thanks!

What happened to the Buffalo CHART?

I have just spoken to Mukremin about the rest of the NY Family charts (1985). I´m sorry to say that he doesn´t have the time right now to finish the project.
But I will give it a try. So I plan to post the Bonannos, the Colombos and the Luccheses (year of 1985) here pretty soon.
Because of my limited knowledge in "computer science", I will only use text.
I don´t know how to create a PDF file with pictures, arrows and stuff so the charts will not be as good as Mukremin´s. I guess I could draw pictures of the dudes, but I´m sorry to say, I have no talent in drawing...either.
Hopefully, I will be able to finish what I and Mukremin started.
Of course all feedback is welcome!

^^good luck!

I am from Chicago. My Uncle is a made man in the Outfit and has been for years. The Chicago Outfit is structured much differently than the 5 Families in New York. In Chicago, for example, there were 6 street crews that constituted the Outfit. For example, from about 1970 to 1986, the Street Crews were as follows. Cicero, Elmwood Park, Rush St., Grand Ave., 26thSt.,& Chicago Heights. The Top Boss of the Outfit was also the Boss of the Cicero Crew (Joey Auippa ), the Boss of the Elmwood Park Crew was the Underboss of the entire Outfit (Jack Cerone). The other 4 Crew Bosses were partners with the two Top Bosses. There were also some made men who were union or political specialists that reported direct to the Top Two Bosses. The Soldiers in the 6 Crews were NOT made men. They worked for the made men with specific jobs. The membership of the Outfit might have been about 240 men but the number of made men might have been about 60. In Chicago it was much more selective and much more difficult to be made, unlike New York where they make everybody. In Chicago, the Bosses of each Crew were equal to a Boss in New York. The made men in Chicago were equal to the Captains in New York. Chicago had their own Commission and had the final say in the midwest out to the West Coast. Chicago also controlled much of Las Vegas and had tremendous political power in their city of Chicago and all Cook County. The 5 New York Families combined were possibly more powerful than the Outfit, but the Outfit was more powerful than any of the New York Families individually. The Outfit also had more political and union power than any of the New York Families. Man per man, the Outfit was the strongest Mafia group in the United States according to F.B.I. reports and the White House reports. I would whole heartedly agree with them.The Oufit was also structured much better than the New York Groups who were always fighting or competing with each other. No Boss in the Chicago outfit ever was killed. The Only exception was Sam Giancana when he tried to make a comeback in 1974 after having been gone for 8 years. Each Boss, including the Top two bosses, have strong power bases and all work together in a structured partnership.

Posting such a statement is equivalent to a so-called "pissing-contest" or everyone measuring there penis!

My uncle is bigger than his uncle.

I don't follow the Outfit is any of that factual stuff or bs? For the time being I'm going to sit on my hands till they go numb and watch Whitney tributes on tv. She is one fine looking African-American Women.

It's not my problem if the F.B.I. and the C.I.A. thought the penis of the Chicago Outfit was better organized and more powerful than any of the New York Families. If you have a problem with it, call the F.B.I. or the C.I.A. and argue with them whose penis was bigger.

Hey I was curious admiral ballsack..So what your telling me is that our federal government "thought the penis of the outfit" was more organized and powerful then NYC Familes. The Penis of the outfit I'm assuming is the boss?

I am no expert on the Chicago outfit, but your statement that the Outfit alone is stronger than 1 individual New York family, that is total crap. With the Colombos going downwards, we could say yes, the Outfit may be stronger. But there is no way you can compare the Genoveses with the Outfit.

Well, since you want to start with name calling, Yes Admiral New York Dick Nose, What I'm saying is that the Government has always considered the Chicago Outfit ( not just the Top Boss) but the entire Chicago Outfit as a more powerful better organized Mafia Group over any of the New York Families. The Chicago Outfit basically elected John Kennedy in 1964. The C.I.A.partnered with Chicago to kill Castro etc., etc. New York makes everybody and their brother. In Chicago, you have to belong to a street crew for years before you would even be considered to be made. In Chicago, when a guy gets made it's a big fucking deal, unlike New York. Made guys are very powerful in Chicago and run their own franchises with soldiers working under them to help them do business with all the street associates.

From the 1930's forward, the Outfit has always been the strongest, best organized, most politically & union strong Mafia group in the country. Chicago basically told New York to get the fuck out of Las Vegas back in the late 1950's. New York has always been strong but is not cohesive like Chicago and makes too many soldiers who basically go out and do whatever they want to do as long as they pay some kind of tribute to their captain. in Chicago, the soldiers are not made guys but instead, they WORK for the made guys doing specific jobs. Much better organized than New York. There is a long, long list of rats in New York. In Chicago, there has only been ONE rat among the highly elite smaller core of made guys in 80 years. The Federal government has publicly stated in numerous reports, that the Chicago Outfit is the Strongest mafia group in the Country. Always has been. Not the Genovese's. If you don't like hearing it, go argue with the Feds about it.

This is again some kind of inside information from outfit ?

Alright Don Penis,

Should I kiss your pinky ring?

There are some knowledgeable people on this board that jerk off to these guys everyday they know everything when it comes to discussing old hairy Italian gangsters. Furthermore stop saying "Go ask the Feds," that's retarded.

You mispelled Franzese..OMG BLOG BLOG BLOG MOBWIVES ON DVR CHECK!

In Girth? LMAO

I didn't say go ask the Feds. I'm simply stating what the reports have been from the F.B.I. & The C.I.A. There's no point arguing with me about it. Don't blame the messenger for the message, New York Dick Nose.

I'm not from New York. I'm from Philly, and I got an old school 1918 Cubs hat da bear wit da bat...bada bing bada boom...

Go look in the mirror and make a real mean scary tough face like your Silvio Dante and post it on here for everyone. Just make sure you don't poop your pants

PS: ChicagoDon how old are you that you have so much insider knowledge on these mummies ?

Strax, Yes it is a combination of inside information and public opinion stated by the F.B.I. & the C.I.A. As far as inside information goes, the Outfit has never been structured like the 5 Families in New York. The Outfit is structured around Street crew power. There have traditionally been 6 street crews in the Outfit, all originating around little Italy neighborhoods in Chicago. There is the Dominent crew, the sub-dominent crew, and the other 4 crews. Each Crew has a Boss, Underboss, maybe a half a dozen Made guys & soldiers who work under the made guys. There are then all of the street associate( like street agent bookmakers & Bar owners ( who partner with the Outfit on poker machines) who do business with the crew. The 4 Crew bosses are partners with and work together with the Dominent & Sub Dominent Crews. The 6 Bosses plus usually a semi-retired Top boss who acts as an advisor make up the Board of Directors who act like a commission. There were traditionally anywhere from 60 to maybe 75 active made guys at anytime on the street. The strongest time for the outfit was from 1957 to 1966 when Sam Giancana, the Boss of the old Taylor St. Crew was the Top Boss of the Outfit. The Top Boss of the Oufit has the strongest Crew. he doesn't sit alone up on a hill and travel around with one bodyguard and then get killed like Paul Castellano.

I thought they got Vegas to themselves after they killed Alan Dorfman? Someone big at least. That and they helped the Eastern families get a strong hold in AC.

Though I do have to kinda agree with you, Chicago does pick it's wiseguys better. There's a far more organized structure in NY, but it seems that Chicago has a better run on it's organization.

Though one thing Chicago never had was as strong as a hold on unions and most notably docks like the Eastern families did and have.

Chicago does have legitimate construction companies that do work outside of Philadelphia in the wealthy suburbs. They also have some trucking companies as well.

The Chicago Outdick

PS: Hey Nicholas did you get your button yet to the mickey mouse club>>>???????????????????

Dick Nose, I like Philly very much. Been to South Philly a few times. I was born in Chicago and my uncle has been a made guy in the Outfit for over 30 years. before that he was a soldier for about 18 years. I know a lot about it. The Chicago Outfit is very well organized and still has tremendous power in Chicago and out west. Like everything else, the Outfit has downsized to 4 Street Crews: Elmwood Park ( Dominent ), Grand Ave., Cicero & 26th St. The Dominent Crew is called the ( extended ) Elmwood Park Crew because within the crew there is a Capo with made men besides the Top Boss of the Entire Outfit who has men directly with him. Back in 1957, Sam Giancana became th Boss of the extended Taylor St. Crew and Top Boss of the Outfit. There was no sub dominent Crew. The other 4 crews at that time were Rush St., Cicero, Elmwood Park & Chicago Heights. All were partnered with Giancana & his men who ran Bookmaking, Poker machines, Loan Sharking, Union Racketeering etc. I learned a lot by watching and asking certain harmless types of questions at the right moments. I learned how truly powerful the Outfit was and that it reached all the way out to Las Vegas & the West Coast. The Outfit almost literally ran Chicago and had tremendous influence in the 50 wards in the city and all the suburbs. I learned about the tremendous difference between the Chicago Outfit and the 5 Families in New York. I always thought, along with a lot of other people, that the Outfit was much better organized than New York and much less chaotic. There were also made men who were specialists of sorts who were direct with the Top Boss. During this time, from 1957 to 1966, the Outfit had maybe 300 men who actually belonged to the street crews, however, maybe 75 at the most were actually made men. In order to be made, you had to be full Italian. Made men were very elite and ran and supervised franchises. the Soldiers in the crews worked under the made men as collectors, Bookmaking office agents etc. There were several Little Italies in Chicago. Years ago, the biggest was Taylor St. on the west side. That is where my uncle was born.

How would you describe the power of the Outfit today? Like the New York families they to have been hammered by the feds/gov.

Chicago, all the way in Philly? Hhphm...

Not yet. I've got plenty of patience, I'd like to earn it rather than ask/beg.

Nick, You are correct about the docks in New York. However, I completely disagree with you about the Union activity in general. Chicago had tremendous power within the unions in Chicago. In Fact, a couple of the Chicago Outfit bosses like Vince Solano & Albert Tocco were actually presidents of a couple of unions! Joey Lombardo ( One of the former Top bosses of the Outfit) Literally financed some htels in Las Vegas with the Teamsters. The teamsters Union was the fucking Bank for the Outfit. The outfit today is still strong with the unions. John DiFronzo is the Boss of the extended Elmwood Park Group and the top Boss of the Outfit. His Brother, Pete DiFronzo, is very strong with the unions. in Fact, I would say Union activity ( Construction) along with Bookmaking & Poker machines, is still fairly strong in Chicago. Loan Sharking is down from before because the guys are too afraid that some juice loan victims willl run to the feds too easily. There has been very few Outfit related murders in Chicago in the last 12 years since 2000. I'd say say maybe 3.

Post a source and we'll see about that.



You mean the ghost of Kennedy?

Actually there is because there aren't any. Any relation to that other guy with incredible inside knowledge?

This was a sarcasm,we already had guy like that from chicago talking with all that inside knowledge and no sources to prove it.And that Outfit is more powerful than NY families,i don't agree.

Yeah - What ever happened to The Bridgeport Vet?

He probably realised that no one believe his stories,so he stopped coming here or maybe he is banned?

I know he had 2-3 warnings.

{CLICK} - Mark deletes the PM for TheBridgeportVet...
(Just like Michael hangs up the phone.)

I don´t mean to be rude or anything and I certainly don´t know your uncle. But I think he pulled a fast one on you.

This thread is for the New York and other families, not for the Outfit nor discussion about the strength. Please..

Muk, still can't wait for the Buffalo Chart.

Sorry, I made a typo. The Outfit Basically elected John Kennedy in 1960. New York Coulkd never have accomlished such a feat in 1960. First of all, the 5 Families would never even have been able to agree which person to support, Nixon or Kennedy.

No, there is information from the F.B.I. stating that the Oufit was the best organized crime group in the Country. If one or two of you New Yorkers don't want to believe it, I really don't care. Look at the long, long, long list of rats in the New York 5 families where they made everybody and his brother, including the taxi cab drivers who pick you up at the airport, and compare it to the ONE rat in Chicago. I'll rest my case.

ChicagoDon,

I think you screwed up Mukremin´s thread. Please post your Chicago stuff in the "Chicago Outfit" thread.

Yeah i know, i have more charts to do. But these days i am very busy, but i will release it soon along with the other 1985 NY family charts.

Okay, no problem. I'LL post the Chicago Outfit stuff on another thread. A couple of you New Yorkers can fantasize how powerful the rat infested disorganized 5 Families are on this thread, including all the internal fighting that went on from the 1960's forward and all the Bosses that got killed by their own men and how the Zips dominated the stupid disorganized Bonnano Family where the Boss moved to Arizona and wrote a book about it.

Good. Just make sure to flush the toilet when you're finished.

Hairy Knuckles your avator looks like the guy who plays Al Capone on Boardwalk, you should post that on his there facebook

Yeah they don't use names that end in a vowel. It's like other state in the country the bids come in, so do all the major players. One hand washes another. The Marcellus/ Shell project I flew up there with my boss this is, Mansfield,Pa there are people from Texas, Canada, Etc.

TRY: WELSH

Oh and there were a few capos from the mickey mouse club..I think Donald Duck rose to the rank of Capo in the late 80's when all the families took blows from federal prosecutors.

Thank you, you seem to obsessed with the Outfit. Care to reveal who your uncle is?

and where ar

Thank you Mukster, you da man.... LOL !!

Great family charts. Thanks!

Thanks Bonanno, you are from the Netherlands?

Yes he is,really nice guy

Muk is back, just saw his name in the left side of my screen. Still can't wait till he makes the Buffalo chart.

Notes
I believe Frank DeCicco (1935-1986x) inherited Tommy Bilotti´s crew in Dec 1985. That´s why I didn´t put him on the list above.
I know it´s a little controversial putting Nick Corozzo on the list since it´s all over internet that Corozzo was promoted to capo in the early 1990´s.
However, in Dellacroce´s indictment file of 1985, the prosecutors claim Corozzo was one of three crew leaders who answered to Dellacroce. Later on, Corozzo is listed as a member of Peter Gotti´s crew (I read this somewhere) before being promoted in the early 1990´s.
I believe it is possible that Corozzo was demoted by Gotti in 1986 but later promoted to a capo rank again.
And also, information suggests that Tommy "Breeze" DeBrizzi (?-1988x) functioned as an acting capo sometime around 1986-1987. I´m not sure he served in this capacity already in 1985.
In any case, he was demoted by Gotti and put in Tommy Gambino´s crew before being killed in 1988.


All feedback is welcome.

Thanks HK, I didn't realise Conte had died in 2000, Where did you find out about his death?

Wiki said he was released from prison in 2003??

I don´t remember really. I must have read it someplace.
Did a little search on the internet but couldn´t find a reference on his death.
Now when you mention this, I´ll edit it.

Thanx

Nice chart Hairy.

Thanx Sonny!

Wasn't Gotti never promoted past acting capo for Fatico?

Yea, I thought Conte was still alive considering everybody always brings his name up inquiring what hes been up to.

I believe that he was.
On the chart above, I put Gotti as an official capo.

Regarding LaForte Sr, I think I stand corrected.

http://www.nytimes.com/1987/05/02/nyregion/3-sought-in-connection-with-si-body.html

However, I believe both Lafortes were under Caiazza, making it possible that Joe "The Cat" LaForte Sr inherited Caiazza´s crew after the demotion of Caiazza.

In regards to the current Gambino family chart, I know the feds still have Salvatore LoCascio as a Bronx Capo on charts etc, but Iv'e brought it up on a thread and the consensus seemed to be he is retired living in Florida.

When it comes to the so called Mafia of today, nothing surprises me anymore. If this is true, it´s almost like a country club where people can join and leave as it pleases them.

To complete the New York Families membercharts of 1985, I will finally post the Genovese Family. This completes the series.
Keep in mind guys that the Genovese Family is extremely hard to do. Not much reliable info is out there. That is why I welcome all kinds of feedback.

Mukremin, my chart differs slightly from the one you made a while ago. If you´re still around, please let me know what you think of it. BTW, we miss you around here!

Acting captain
Either Louis Vigilante (1912-1995) or Barney Bellomo (1957- ) (for Santoro)

Jimmy "the Little Guy" Ida (1940- ) was a fast rising star at this time. In 1986 he functioned as the acting captain for Ianello before being named the acting consigliere in 1989 and official consigliere in 1990. This seemingly in spite of never been appointed an official captain.

The guy of this facebook page uses Mukremin's charts. Did he ask permission?

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mafia-Inc-Online/304834209580632

Well i saw bunch of mafia-related sites/boards using Mukremin's charts.

lol "most popular age group: 13-17 year olds"

I haven't seen Mukremin here in awhile.

Hello people, whats up?
i was away for a while, some problems at work etc. Nothing big..

And yes, i am aware they are using the charts. Cant do something about it, some websites did ask permission.
Daily mail UK: www.dailymail.co.uk/ also asked for permission, i havent checked the website. But i wasnt aware of the facebook thing, cant get access because i dont have an account.

Hope all is well Mukremin, wow the Daily Mail asked for your charts?! That's amazing!

How come you can't get a facebook account?

I went there and asked them if they asked for permission to use those charts. Maybe I'll get an answer.

Ok, this was their reply to me under the Gambino chart:

No Permission required as the founder of this site was one of the person's involved who actually created these charts.

Hmm interesting i am interested in that person, who is that person?

And yes, i am well thank God.

I am a anti-facebook guy so thats the reason i am not on facebook

I don't know who it is, but I could go tell him off if you want me to.

Welcome back Muk - good to see you.

Carmela - go get them!

Did he edit the charts in any way? If not, he can keep it posted. But he must stop claims that some other guy has been making those charts. maybe i will open a facebook account.

One of the things I was never conscious of was just how old some of the caporegime are! Neil only controlled three crews? That doesn't seem like a ton of strength if a civil war were to have broken out in the Gambino Family.

I think bosses in general, and Castellano in particular, feel more comfortable of having guys their own age around them.

He took the charts down. My work here is done.

Good job Carmela!
you showed us you got talent..

That makes sense, although if you believe the history then Castellano had isolated himself from all but a few of those people.

Why am I not surprised???

Good to see you back Muk, i think my site was the first one to post up your charts. I randomly found this site posting them up as well http://mafiatoday.com/mafia-families-gangs-gangsters/mafia-family-charts-and-leadership-2011/

Hope your doing well bud.

Hi Dapper! yeah i am doing fine, thanks

if you search on google for images, you will come across many websites that post those charts. On one side its good to have people using it, that means they like it. But on the other hand, some use it like if they created it. We will see what the future holds

Very true, good to hear your well.

new mafia family charts for 2012??

might be the wrong place,but are there maps of the territory of the different groups in NY?

new mafia family charts family members for 2012?if possible new york,philly,detroit,and chicago e buffalo.

I am working on new 2012 charts, but it wont happen this month or next. A bit later this summer.

^^awesome, keep me posted so i can also update the charts on the site, hope all is well bud!

no answer?:(
there is no such thing for NY like this :

I suppose somebody could try doing it with the 5 families but the mob's presence in the greater NY area isn't so geographically defined nowadays. By that I mean all 5 families operate throughout the area to one degree or another. Some may have more presence in one area than another but it's not so compartmentalized.

good!do you have other maps?

I'd just like to say good work to all here, this site is great I have found somewhere with people who like to discuss organized crime and it's threat. Can't wait for the 2012 year charts, when will the genovese's get their new boss???

Also I would say the Lucchese crime family is more powerful than the Bonannos now days.

good chart would be on the persico family tree. andy mush russo is his snakes cousin then all his kids are soldiers there second cousin is vic orena i would like to see who else is related by blood or marige. thats crazy how criminal that family is. orena kids are cousins to snakes kids and there trying to kill each other. then michael persico is married to thomas petrizzo daughter it goes on and on.

I found a the description of the succession of main mafia bosses in the province of Agrigento in Sicily (representatives of the province in the regional commission). I also inserted the dates of their staying in power, however some are missing as I didn’t manage to find them. Maybe somebody can fill up the missing parts.
It's from the book "Cosa muta" (Silent thing) by Alfonso Bugea.

1997-????

Giuseppe Fanara (serving a life sentence)

2002-2010

Giuseppe Falsone (serving a life sentence)

2010-????

Gerlandino Messina (serving a life sentence)

giuseppe falsone was made capoprovincia in 2002 after a mafia summit of all the bosses, underboss and some consiglieri of agrigento province and he was until his arrest in 2010

But is Gerlandino Messina still considered the official representative of the province in the commission even though he is in prison or is he considered demoted?

Giuseppe Falsone was together with Gerlandino Messina as boss of Agrigento Province. Gerlandino took over as godfather officially after Falsone's arrest in june, 2010. Gerlandino was fugitive for 11 years, captured in Oct, 2010. Both serving life sentences...as well as Gerlandino's older brother, Salvatore, serving life sentence as well.

He is still the last named boss of Agrigento. He's under 41-bis though for life.

according to the rules salvatore fragapane should be still the representative of the province until his death, but being imprisoned they need an acting representative
of course its possible fragapane was demoted so falsone is still the official
gerlandino messina was the underboss capoprovincia

You're wrong about this. Gerlandino was boss of that province upon his arrest, not underboss. I'm not going to go back and forth on this with you. Do more research.

where you get he was boss? i knew he was the underboss of the province
in that summit they elected falsone and according to letters seized from messina denaro it's clear falsone was the boss of the province
maybe they labeled gerlandino messina as boss because falsone was in prison at that time

i don't really know very much about the mafia down there. how many different families/clans are active?

And that's what I said in my earlier post in here. He is the last named godfather of agrigento as of today.

In addition, he was extremely close to Messina-Denaro as well... just as Falsone was. When he was captured, there were notes found on him with intention of going out to MMD.

A lot,there are about 4500-5000 made members.As for La Stidda i really don't know.Maybe carmela can help.

Here is the partial reconstruction of the mandamento headed by the Montevago boss Giuseppe La Rocca (in the Agrigento province again) made following the examination of anonymous letters sent to the police by Calogero Capizzi (former boss of the Ribera mafia family turned police informant) and the examination of papers found in his car after his disappearance.
It’s from the book “La mafia, la Stidda” by Franco Castaldo.

Montevago mandamento (1990)

Montevago family:

Giuseppe La Rocca (boss; capo mandamento)
Gino Guzzo

Sciacca family:

Salvatore Di Ganci (boss)
Ignazio Ambla
Accursio Dimino
Stefano Vitabile
Stefano Greco
Salvatore Greco
Francesco Dimino
Salvatore Ragusa
Calogero Maietta
Rosario Messana
Giacomo Ciaccio
Giacomo Latino
Oreste Bonavires
Giuseppe Lombardo
Francesco Lombardo
Giuseppe Bono (born 1931)
Giuseppe Bono (born 1910)
Calogero Liotta

Ribera family:

Simone Capizzi (boss; underboss of the mandamento)
Paolo Capizzi (born 1925)
Mauro Capizzi
Giuseppe Amico
Antonino Colletti

Sambuca family:

Pietro Campo (consigliere of the mandamento)
Michele Caloroso

Lucca Sicula family:

Silvestre Danna

Bivona family:

Carmelo Noto (boss)

Burgio Family:

Giovanni Derelitto (boss)

La Stidda (and not meant to take this thread off topic, so I apologize) is nothing more of a gang of Cosa Nostra fuckups who couldn't and wouldn't adhere to mafia rules. Today...they have pretty much all been absolved into cosa nostra families again. They're still a bunch of fuck ups, imo.

Dwalin...good posting there! I wonder if that author Franco Castaldo is the same as the writer behind the online page on facebook I read everyday.
Would anybody here know? He posts up to the minute and is very good.
Here is link to the fb page:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/GRANDANGO...do/160077363746

Yes, he is the same person. His books about the Agrigento mafia are very interesting. He send me his latest book about Falsone and Messina when I couldn't find it in any shops and didn't even charge me for it.

I tried to write the succession of provincial representatives of all the provinces represented in the mafia commission, but the sources I found state incomplete information, many dates are missing and there is very little information about the underbosses and consiglieri. Also, there is much confusion about the Catania province, as I don't understand who was Santapaola's successor as representative of the province. Different sources I found on internet and in books list his son Vincenzo, Calogero Conti and Eugenio Galea, but don't state the chronological order and the dates. Maybe somebody could provide information so I can fill the missing parts?

francesco la rocca, boss of caltagirone, is underboss of the province

salvatore seminara, boss of aidone family is the provincial boss of enna
vincenzo militello, boss of regalbuto, is consigliere provinciale

there about 150-180 active families the made members are about 5.000 with about 50.000 associates

Thanks for the information. I had missed the news about Vaccaro's life sentence for the Ricottone murder being overturned.
But Francesco La Rocca is now in prison, the supreme court upheld this year his and Raffaele Bevilacqua's life sentence for the Calcagno murder.

yes ciccio la rocca is in prison and i think his brother gesualdo too
but he's still the boss of caltagirone and provincial underboss and he named some acting boss over there

I prepared a chart of the Porto Empedocle family as it was in 1997 according to what is written in the books I have. I chose this group because it was one of the few whose (almost) complete membership I managed to find and the only one for which I have enough photos. I know, there is no consigliere but the informants Pasquale Salemi and Alfonso Falzone (the underboss) for some reason never named one to the police. The family was in disarray in the 90s though after many members were killed by the stidda. Also, I put Domenico Seddio above the other associates on the picture because he was named by Pasquale Salemi as the most powerful one.
However, correct me please if I made any mistakes.

^^^ Wow, good chart. The first I've seen anyone do on this family. This is the Messina-Salemi-Albanese cosca. There is Calogero Salemi missing, as you and I have spoken about. He was Pasquale Salemi's nephew and also killed by Stidda, indirectly, in a car bomb. There are also Caruana and [BadWord] members that should be on there.
Giuseppe Salemi was just arrested last year, by doing business with Stidda in Operation Hardom.

Good post, Dwalin.

I know there were Calogero Salemi and others, I didn't put them on the picture because they were already dead in 1997. It would be interesting to do other charts, but I don't have enough information about the structure and membership of the family before Luigi Putrone who rose to power in 1993.
However, thanks for the appreciation!

But they are from the Siculiana family, headed in the 90s by Giuseppe Renna (probably) and Filippo Sciara.
By the way, why is Cun-trera always substituted by "badword" when we try to write it?

Yes, but they were intermarried into the Salemi and Messina families and part of the family. But you're right, they were originally from Siculiana. Today, many reside in Porto Empedocle.

Right, I understand about Calogero, but i see you included Giuseppe Messina, which I assume is Gerlandino's father? He was also killed in '86. Unless is a different Giuseppe?

The word Cun trera gets filtered out by the board censor because of the word c unt.

I meant another Giuseppe Messina, the one who was acting boss after Gerlando, Giuseppe and Antonino were killed. He was captured in 2000. In the books they say he was Gerlandino's uncle, but he couldn't possibly be his father's brother since he was also named Giuseppe. Maybe he is the father's cousin or some other relative? I am not sure anymore which Giuseppe is on the photo. Maybe I should have checked for more information before putting him on the picture.

I'm confused with this Giuseppe, too. But I'll find out for you and get back to this.

anyway ribera, burgio and bivona are not in the same mandamento of montevago

The book says they were in 1990

Giuseppe Messina on your chart that was captured in 2000, is Gerlando's brother, and Gerlandino's cousin, not his uncle. You have the correct pic there, as well.

I deleted it, because I was scared of offending some of the more tender members around here. I didn't want to use the word [BadWord] in public.

oy vey

today bivona is in the same mandamento with alessandria della rocca
ribera is in the same of ciaciana, burgio, luca sicula and others
montevago is in the mandamento with sciacca, sambuca, santa margherita belice
i think in 1990 was the same and that information is incorrect

Maybe it is incorrect. But don't blame me, blame Calogero Capizzi with his anonymous letters to the police I just copied what was in the book.
What sources of information do you have (just being curious)?

my sources are all the police reports or declarations of informats in the latest 20 years sure more accurate than an anonymous letter

However, the author of the book, Franco Castaldo, is considered an expert on the mafia of that particular province, I don't think he would have included that chapter in the book if it was based only on anonymous letters. He must have had other sources.
I am not putting in doubt the authority of your sources, don't take offense. I was just wondering about the contradictions between your sources and the information in the book.

maybe in the 1990 they were an unique mandamento and they split into two after although i doubt it
according to the latest news there is the

sciacca mandamento with sciacca, sambuca, santa margherita and montevago families
boss salvatore di gangi (sciacca) underboss leo sutera (sambuca)

ribera mandamento with ribera, cianciana, burgio, cattolica eraclea and lucca sicula families
boss andrea montalbano (cianciana)

alessandria della rocca mandamento with alessandria della rocca, bivona and santo stefano quisquina families
boss vincenzo ferranti (bivona)

There is a chart of the Palermo clan?

this is a list of acting capimandamento in freedom

I once saw a dossier describing the structure of all known mafia families in Sicily in 1990. Unfortunately, it has been removed from internet and now there is a link to only the first 6 pages. It's in Italian though.

http://www.mafiapedia.it/tiki-index.php?page=L'Organigramma+della+Mafia

Click on mafia.pdf to open it

It's strange they put Salvatore Fragapane into the Caramazza family. I thought that in 1990 he was already a boss of his own family.

the caramazza family is the same as santa elisabetta family that's coz they put fragapane into it

biagio di giacomo they are talking to is the member of the patriarcas?

That's right. He married a Caramazza as well.

Jus wanna say thanks to Muk, Hairyknuckles and everyone else who contributed to these charts. Im sure they took alot of time and work and they are awesome!!

This thread is great, many thanks to whom posted it, sorry I dont know names yet I am new here, but Ive read many books that Ive seen in the thread about the mob books, also a big film buff of the topic... I have one question, I dont know if this was dicussed or even on here some-where, but is there any-where I can see Family Charts, but from the 50's when Valacci flipped, and layed out everything and most of the first Family Charts were put together.?

Ralph, go to page 2 on this forum. Scroll down, almost to the bottom. Click on the "Charts from 60s and 70s" thread.
Here you will find the famous charts that were used in the Valachi Senate Hearings of 1963. The charts are not 100 percent accurate and a lot of names are missing. But the charts are legendary, first of its kind.

Welcome aboard!

Thanks Knucks really appreciate it, I must've slid right by em.....

I would love an update on the charts from 70s-80s/80s-90s, if at all possible..

Anybody know where I can purchase the Family Charts framed for decorating.?

It would be a huge help..

-Ralph.

there are websites where you can upload a picture and buy it as a poster or framed.but it will cost you if you dont have a coupon.

http://www.posterjack.com/ this is a german site,but as yuou can see its expensive.for german sites there are a lot of Vouchers.maybe for your location too.

Thanks bro, Ill look into it..

I totally forgot to get back to this. With regard to Pasquale Salemi, he was taken out of wit sec and thrown in jail because he had told a lot of mistruths, as authorities had come to find out later on. And he withheld a lot of info he had, as well... such as a name for the consigliere.

"ROM" Romminello (geneovese capo) is a really really nice guy.

And I am 95% sure Vinny Azuro (listed as a soldier in the Bonnano's)is actually a capo...he was in trouble like 10 years ago and the newspapers had him listed as a capo.
is

Thanks guys, i am back from vacation. It wasnt any part of my plans, but i tried to read topics while i was away. Did i miss any major news? I heard that Matty passed away..

What information is available about Joey Flowers, besides he died In May of 2005 ...just curious

Heres the updated Bonanno chart guys, take a look:

Nice chart, but I think Vito Grimaldi and Vincent Asaro are caporegimes at least.

Read this article:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jerry-capeci/mob-murder-in-montreal-co_b_417688.html

I always thought the same about Asaro, but couldnt find a good source to back it up. I still have my doubts about Grimaldi tough.

What do you think about Vinny TV and Graziano? They still hold the position of Acting Boss and Consiglieri?

Jerry Capeci lists Asaro as a capo. The Asaro family hail from Castellammare Del Golfo and have been part of the Bonanno family since the beginning. I see you do list Asaro's son, Jerome as a caporegime. Imo, you should switch them.

I don't know whether Vinny TV is still acting boss, but he's only serving a short sentence.

About Grimaldi I'm not sure. He could be consigliere.

Mukremin, your chart looks great. Graziano was indicted as a captain. It doesn´t seem like Grimaldi is a captain but please don´t quote me on that, because it´s pretty hard to know for sure. My personal belief is that Vincent Asaro does not serve as a captain any longer. But who knows, he may be in the administration serving as consigliere or underboss, or is in semi retirement. Extremely hard to know for sure.

But do you think that he is below his own son in the Bonanno family hierarchy?

some soldiers report directly to the boss and in the 70tys. big paul had soldiers like funzi mosca and d.b. report direct to him gotti had guys like that to maybe its alot more common today. some of these old guys made in the 50tys there still active but are only soldier i bet there word holds more weight and are more respected then a 45 yr old capo who was made 10yrs ago. bonanno's have to have a street boss they got atleast 60+ guys in the street maybe a capo volunteerd just to right the ship not even for money or power.steps down as soon as a boss comes home or selected. ever since carmine persico been in prison he finds someone to step up.scarpa said in the 70tys persico had dibella step in as acting boss just cause persico wasnt offical boss yet.

I had thought Joe Cammarano and Sammartino were out of jail along with Jerry Chilli

If he is semi retired, then yes. Asaro is extremely hard to figure out. He is pushing 80.

Another thing that´s intresting is the rank of Aiosa. According to Vitale, Aiosa was just a soldier. Muk, do you know for sure if Aiosa was made captain sometime after Vitale´s testimony?

I am not sure about Grimaldi, but i still have my doubts about Asaro. He may not hold the official rank of a capo, but he could be in a ruling panel or just a soldier with more power.

I will correct the mistakes soon, i can see that some capos and soldiers have been released from prison.

By the way, Vinny TV was also listed as a capo during the arrest right?

Concerning Aiosa, he was a capo way before Vitale. It could be that during the later years of Massino, he was bumped down to soldier. And currently he may be holding the rank of Capo. Dont got any accurate source on that, just assuming.

I haven´t seen or read the indictment but Badalamenti is most certainly a captain.

So Vincent Asaro's son, Jerome, is a caporegime in the Bonanno family?

sonny-yes. jerry skippers that crew.his dad is just a soldier. he has another uncle, jerome, whos made too.tv was the boss since 2010. that guy balsamo from staten island had his crew.

Balsamo is an acting Capo, Vinny tv was the acting boss.

that is what i said.

Muk! Good to see you back in the house! Looking forward to seeing new charts soon.

Thanks Mark! I am working on updating the New York families, some faults are discovered. After that will start working on the other families, i am not working on Chicago and Montreal. Its to complex and messy job for me to do

Now everything works,thank you Mukremin !!!

Muk - these are amazing. You are to be commended for all your hard work and diligence. Nice job!

Glad you fellas enjoy it, of course if anyone has pictures that arent listed? Feel free to send them to me.

how do you even find some of the names on these charts?

Informants, Federal Courts, Law Enforcement, Insiders.

- Dominick "Donny Shacks" Montemarano
- Andrew Russo

Muk,

As always brother you are the king.

How about the Rizzuto family?

Naah, i wont get into that. Its too complicated to make a Rizzuto chart, Sonny has made some nice charts of the Rizzutos.

Thanks for the charts very impressive and well done!

(Yes, I specially registered for saying that)

The sixth family
http://www.upload.ee/image/2857665/thesixthfam.JPG

Thanks Cibola, i appreciate it.

You should mail some of these to some authors or experts on that, and show your whole charts. I actually like them. The news are now living 5 years back whenever they report on Cosa Nostra.

And who are you again? I don't think you even know?

The son of no one?

The son of mob guy

Dicknose - Don't start your crap on this thread. Try my messages or shout box than mess up a good thread.

I know my charts were posted on DailynewsUK, and George Anastasia saw my Philly chart last year. The chart was accurate at the moment, but now we know that Ligambi never was the official boss. Anyways... Anastasia said the chart was as accurate as the feds have.

did he mention your charts on mobtalk?

no he didnt, they could have shown it just for a couple of seconds i wouldnt mind.

Well whatever you are doing Muk don't stop.

Keep up the good work.

I see no DM on the charts? Nothing on "The General" or the others? Is this still a work in progress? Or are they not recognized in the charts? Just curious and wanted to know how it Works, If I may.

DM,"The General" - who are they?

DM "Dixie Mafia" and Carlton "The General " Clay Russell. Look back in other forums and there should be info on that. Wikipedia also. There is one guy on here that usually has alot to say in reference to the Dixie Mafia, and was "Craving Information" on them. He is well informed so I'm sure he could help with the charts, or anything to do with them. I'm not sure how it works thats why I was asking?

Who is the poster who knows (or wants to know) alot about them? Tbh reading the wiki page ( that's probably mostly bs ) i was quite interested. As far as i know and i've not been here long they've not been mentioned often so i doubt a chart on them will be made. If you and this other poster and whoever else has enough knowledge on them to create a chart and maybe a thread with some accurate info on themv i'm sure people including me will be interested.

Are they active today ?

all working independently,few guys here and there

Bit of a long shot, but are there any Sicilian family charts? I'm particularly interested in the Porta Nuova mandamento, as I have family in the Borga Vecchio.

One other question, how many capos are the DeCavalcantes estimated to have? Just the five that appear on the chart?

No plans for the Sicilian familes, since its hard to make an estimate and who is who.

Heres the DeCavalcante chart i made in 2010:

The charts are down it seems.

Mukremin, your KC one don't work anymore. Love your photo charts. You guys did a great job. If you can do that Buffalo crime family chart that'll be superb. I've sent you 6 photos (3 never seen on the net) to you. Hope you received them. Best of luck on future work.

thanks guys, will be releasing the updated Buffalo chart on request, i will also relist the charts, provide new links.

Thanks, Mukremin

Thanks Muk.

Nice work Muk!!!!

Muk - you are a true gentleman. Great work. These are much appreciated!

Here is the Buffalo so far, i want to thank stern for his help getting pictures and info. I must say that i dont believe there is anything left in Buffalo to be called a family. But i have released this as a request for the forum members, take a look and enjoy

http://www.freeuploadshare.com/image/Buffalo_Cosa_Nostra_family.jpg

Looks good. I thought everyone said
Leonard Falzone was boss

We dont have any source on who is boss, he used to be consiglieri and after that supposedly underboss. Some say hes the boss now, but others claim not. Its like taking a gamble when your making a chart
cant statisfy everyone

i corrected the soldiers, no more associates because it gets confusing.

http://www.freeuploadshare.com/image/Buffalo_Cosa_Nostra_family.jpg

Great job, Muk. Do you think you should add James Feliciano, the 35 year old as a member? He was born in 1977. I don't know if he really was made. What do you or Ivy think?

Those are some really nice charts you made Mukremin. Looks like you put in a lot of effort to make them.

Thanks for posting them.

I really liked all the photo's you used on them too.

It was a pretty big download for a chart and i had trouble the first couple times getting the complete chart but in the end i did download them.

Thanks again, keep up the good work.

I really liked all the photo's you used on them too.Every thing is clear and there is no ambiguity at all.

Thanks for sharing.

links are dead pls somebody update

Don't be fooled by their looks. I know (or knew) many of these guys and they are intelligent in a way that most of us aren't. They're ruthless, treacherous and have no conscience, which makes for a very dangerous person. They are experts in survival, street style. Extreme caution is warranted.

SicilianJohn,

I mean no bad with this trust me bro but what the hell do you mean by that comment.

Scalish, I'm still trying to get used to this site so I probably could have made myself clearer. Earlier in this thread sveral people were posting things like:

"Looking at all those guys, most of them don't look very bright. Talking about the 'general attrition' hypothesis. It's not like it used to be... But looks can be deceiving though. wink"

So I answered them but probably put it in the wrong place.

SicilianJohn,

All good my man. Just did not get but now I do. Welcome to the board bro.

Sicilian john, reppin da HB.

I have recently read 2 books about the 'ndrangheta in the province of Cosenza which have some rare photos and descriptions of less known facts about the mafia wars in the 70s and the 80s. So I made some charts (incomplete, unfortunately) and translated a couple of pages from one of the books so you understand what are the charts about:

The Cosenza province has been the last one of the Calabrian provinces to end up in the grip of the ‘ndrangheta. In 1903 86 people have been convicted for gang association. Their leader was Stanislao De Luca, a young man from a good family, aided by one Francesco De Francesco, nickamed “za Peppa”. The clan had initiation rites similar to the ones of the “picciotteria” of Reggio and Catanzaro.
After that, the criminal organizations remained unnoticed for a long time. From the 30s to the 60s one of the most feared bosses was Luigi Pennino, a freelance photographer, very good at using the knife.
The clans drew attention to them again when Luigi Palermo, nicknamed “Zorro”, a boss who made career under Pennino, has been killed in Cosenza 14 December 1977. It was Franco Pino, a young ambitious gangster, who ordered his murder. A war without quarter started. The Muto clan of Cetraro, the Basile-Calvano of San Lucido and the boss Giuseppe Cirillo (the trusted man of Raffaele Cutolo’s New Organized Camorra in the Sibari area) took the side of Franco Pino and his main ally, Antonio Sena.
The Pranno brothers and the Vitellis, the Africanos of Amantea and the Serpas of Paola chose to take the side of Franco Perna, the killed boss’s nephew-in law instead.
The war continued until the end of the 80s. Dozens of people have been killed, including a 12-year-old boy, Pasqualino Perri, the son of a businessman close to the Pino-Sena group. Another significant episode of this violent conflict was the murder by the Pino-Sena group of two members of the Reggio ‘ndrangheta the 6 August 1983 in Scalea, at the request of the clans of Reggio Calabria headed by Pasquale Condello and Giovanni Fontana. In Cetraro, Giannino Lo Sardo was killed, chief secretary of the Public Prosecutor’s office in Paola and Comunist councillor, an enemy of the clans of the Cozenza province.
“They only kill each other, it’s better to wait”. That’s what was often heard in Cosenza during the 80s. The fighting clans hunted each other like beasts. To kill the enemy, before he kills you.
At the end of the 80s, after dozens of murders, a “pax mafiosa” (mafia peace) was established, although it was short-lived because of the detachment of the Bartolomeo-Notargiacomo group from the Perna-Pranno-Vitelli clan. It was then that the murder of Sergio Cosmai, the director of the Cosenza prison, was committed. “My husband”, Tiziana Palazzo says, “has been killed by the ‘ndrangheta because he was a state official who believed in the respect of the law”. Before Cosmai’s arrival, the imprisoned clan members of Cosenza lived by small and big privileges. 21 June 1983 there was a mutiny. The prisoners wanted the lengthening of out-of-cell time. The director of the prison decided to use severe methods. Some prison guards used batons to convince the prisoners to re-enter their cells. Even the boss Francesco Perna didn’t avoid being beaten by the guards. And he remembered this very well. “I want a 12-caliber sawed-off shotgun” he is alleged to have said in prison “because when I will shoot him, I have to disfigure him, I must reduce him to such conditions to make him unrecognizable”.
12 March 1985 Cosmai was killed by a Perna clan hitman while he was in his Fiat 500 on the way to take his daughter from school.
The second mafia war was also a massacre. One of the most ferocious episodes was the murder of the brothers Stefano and Giuseppe Bartolomeo, 24 and 26 years old, kidnapped 5 January 1991. The bodies of the two brothers were dissolved in acid, as the murderers Aldo Acri’, Ferdinando Vitelli, Angelo Santolla and Mario Pranno declared. An underage boy, Francesco Bruni, was killed in November 1991 to take revenge on his father, considered responsible for the death of Francesco Carelli, close to the Pranno-Vitelli group. He was 16 years old. He was found with his throat slit, strangled with an iron wire in a ravine among the woods under Montescuro, one of the tallest Mountains of the Silan highland.
During the operation “Missing” in October 2006 a quarter of the century of mafia wars in the Cosenza province has been reconstructed, with the arrest of the bosses Giuseppe Irilli and Domenico Cicero, top members of the former Perna-Pranno clan, and the brothers Michele and Pasquale Bruni, bosses of the homonymous clan. Francesco Muto, the boss of Cetraro, and the bosses of San Lucido and Paola, Romeo Calvano and Giuliano Serpa, were also indicted.
Thanks to the decimation of the ‘ndrine of Crari, the so-called “gypsy clan” took over the drug trafficking. Only in December 2007 the antimafia law about the assets sequestration was applied for the first time.

Any updated chart of Detroit?

I found this document about the trial of some 'ndrangheta groups for the gang war that happened in the 80s (unfortunately it's only available in Italian).

http://www.stopndrangheta.it/file/stopndrangheta_439.pdf

If I got it right, it describes the groups as they were at the moment of the arrests made in 1992, with the so-called operation "Olimpia".
Here I tried to make a chart of the Libri 'ndrina. However, I put on it only the members listed in the document and they seem too few for one of the most powerful 'ndrangheta clans. Maybe they weren't able to identify the other members back then. Maybe somebody could provide information to complete the chart?

Some handsome fella's there!

Marios nickname must be Fabio

Very cool charts! Thank you for posting all of them.

Siderno Group chart I found on a weird Canadian football hooligans' site:


http://canadianfootball.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/mob-tree.jpg

I tried to make a chart of the Racalmuto mafia in 1991 (Racalmuto is in the province of Agrigento):



However, I am not sure if it's 100% correct as I don't know if Diego Di Gati was the only capo in the family in 1991 when the war with the stidda started. However, it's possible he was the only one as the family was quite small and not very powerful, they even had to ask the help of Salvatore Fragapane from Santa Elisabetta.
Also, I am not sure who of the low-level members was actually made and who was just an associate. I read Nicolo' Cino and Diego Petruzzella were made, but I don't know for sure about the others. Maurizio Di Gati was made later, in 1991 he was just an associate.

Great chart! You know, that no image picture is actually a picture of Vito Rizzuto.

Here I made a chart of the Castelvetrano family in the 90s. But there might be one HUGE mistake about the capos: I read a book published in 1993, before the trial and the convictions, so they changed many of the surnames. In the book they call the 2 capos "Saverio Riesi" and "Peppe Nicastro". Saverio Riesi must be Saverio Furnari, but I still don't understand who Giuseppe Nicastro might be. In the family, as I read, there were 2 high-placed members named Giuseppe: Marotta and Clemente, i think it's one of them, but who? Anyway, I put them both on the same level on the chart because another book states they later had more or less the same power.
Also, I found no mention of who the underboss of the family might have been. But I read that, when Francesco Messina Denaro went into hiding, the consigliere (Vaccarino) became acting boss.



P.S. I hope Matteo Messina Denaro won't find and kill me for the mistakes I may have made in this chart




And here is a chart of the Catania family in the 80s. I made it according to this document which contains the interrogation of Antonino Calderone, the former underboss of the family.

http://archiviopiolatorre.camera.it/img-repo/fondo_zupo/Sez._I_serie_0001_Vol_022.pdf

Strangely, it seems that according to him at the beginning of the 80s Santapaola only had 1 capo, while in the 70s they were at leat 2. Maybe the other one went with Alfio Ferlito and his group.

What program do you guys use to make the charts?

John Riggis out of the can. Hes oooooldddd bro! Doesnt even look like that pic.

I use Microsoft Publisher.

Is Tin ear sclafani out already? I just read the book about the jersey family "made men". From the looks of their chart, the Decalvecantes are decimated; mabye 30 guys on the street.

I thought made men was a good book. That vinny ocean was a shady character

Hmm nice to read this and it is really beneficial to get information from this. Thank you for sharing this.

Any Patriarca chart?

Tony "Dutchie" Tuzzo (1912-2000)
Died around (1976)

If correct, thanks for the info, Torrie.

It´s hard finding any solid info on Tuzzo. Do you know anything about him? For example, did he live in Fort Lee, NJ? Any blood relation with Charles (Chuckie)?

Welcome to the boards!

think hes chuckies father.

I think so too, Skinny. But I haven´t found anything that confirms it.

Likewise would love to see one, Muk?

Is there a way to see these without downloading them?

Now I just checked and could it be possible there are 2 Anthony or Tony " Dutchie" Tuzzo. The one I was referring to was referenced in the book "The Five Families" pg 579?

Two Tony "Dutchie" Tuzzo members of the NY Mafia, you mean? I don´t think so. I don´t think I have ever come across two mobsters sharing the same first and last name also sharing the same nick name. And I have been researching these guys for a long time. The Anthony Tuzzo, who passed away in 2000 and listed in the Social Security Death Index, apparently lived at some point in Fort Lee, NJ. If we are able to find out that "our" Anthony Tuzzo, the Genovese captain, lived in Fort Lee, NJ then we would know for sure his year of death. The Anthony Tuzzo listed in the SSDI was born in 1912 which coincides with what we do know about "our" Tony Tuzzo.

Well the one I know of is referred as Anthony "dutchie" Tuzzo is from Brooklyn, born in 1912 died around 1974? Yes and was also in the Genovese Crime Family. Read page 579 The Five Families. Now the only thing that is possible is the difference is Anthony or Tony.

Yes I have read that page. But nowhere on that page says Tuzzo died in 1974. Would be interesting to know, where did you come across info saying that?

Because that Anthony "dutchie" Tuzzo was connected to Gerard Pappa died approximately 6 years before, Gerard Pappa was killed.

Okay. But where did you read/hear that? Sometimes knowing the source helps evaluate the info.

The "dutchie" I know died when I was a kid, I called him uncle Anthony or uncle dutchie.

Okay. Thanks for clearing that up. That makes sense. The Anthony Tuzzo listed in the SSDI (and who lived in Fort Lee, NJ) is an entirely different Anthony Tuzzo. Probably not connected to organized crime in any way.

You're welcome

Torrie (and anybody else who is interested in info on Tony Dutchie), I have just received some info on him from a reliable source who knows his stuff. The source met Dutchie at a place called Villa 66 a couple of times sometime prior to his death in 1974 (he believe it was). So you are right about him passing away around 1974. Villa 66 is the same place where Gerry Pappa was killed in 1980. Dutchie had very bad hearing, he was frail and old looking guy. He had hearing aids, but never let that fool anyone he could read lips from across the room. He did a lot of time in prison for a murder he did not do and was very close to Gus Frasca, a Genovese captain who passed away in 1980. Tuzzo got his name "Dutchie" because as a young man he had redish hair they use to say like a Dutchman. Dutchie loved his pigeons. He had coops on the roof of his restaurant.

My source never told me which restaurant but possibly the place was Villa 66.

Im kind of interested to see what the next Philly family chart is going to look like with a few new members, different hierarchy, and the scarfo guys back on the street. but im guessing the only people that know right now are the actual philly guys themselves.

Administration[edit|edit source]

Boss Domenico Cefalu[50] – A Sicilian-born mobster who started out as a heroin trafficker in the Family's Sicilian "Zip" faction. He was inducted into the organization in 1990 by John Gotti and joined the Pasquale Conte crew, a group that included relatives of Cefalu and held strong ties to Sicily. After being identified as acting underboss in the mid-2000s, Cefalu was eventually confirmed as the new boss of the family in 2011.
Underboss Frank Cali - Like Cefalu, Cali has strong ties to Sicily, in particular those close to his relative, John Gambino. Though he maintains association with the Sicilian faction, Cali was born and raised in New York City and eventually rose in stature within the regime of Jackie D'Amico. Cali was later identified as acting captain of this crew, though in 2012 he has been identified as Cefalu's new underboss.[63]
Consigliere Joseph "Jo Jo" Corozzo – a former capo, Joseph and his brother Nicholas "Little Nick" Corozzo control the Queens-based "Corozzo faction". In 1992, Joseph became consigliere after Gotti's imprisonment. On February 8, 2008, Joseph and Nicholas were indicted during Operation Old Bridge. In June 2008, Joseph pleaded guilty to a racketeering conspiracy charge concerning the extortion of a Staten Island concrete firm and was sentenced to 46 months in prison. In 2011, Corozzo was indicted on new federal racketeering charges. He currently has no release date

Good post, but you shouldn´t rely on Wiki too much when it comes to info on the Mafia. Some corrections;

- Most of the remnants of the Brooklyn Camorra ended up with Masseria, not D´Aquila. In fact, D´Aquila lead a strictly Sicilian Mafia organisation. The only non-sicilian who was a member during D´Aquila´s/Mineo´s/Scalise´s reign seems to be Albert Anastasia.

- Carlo Gambino was the consigliere of this Family before being named acting boss by the Commission in 1957. It wasn´t until 1960 Gambino was formally named official boss.

- Paul Castellano served as acting boss a couple of years starting in 1967.

- Street boss is not a formal position within a Family, but somebody who steps up running the Family when the official boss is not available. A street boss/Acting boss can be a captain, consigliere or underboss.

- The underboss position under Anastasia was held by Nino Conte, Frank Scalise and Salvatore "Toto" Chirico. Possibly some of these guys funtioned only temporarily, or acted, in this position.

- Philip Mangano was a captain, he never served as consigliere.

- Biondo was the official consigliere from 1931 until he was demoted in the 1950s, either by Anastasia directly or after a request by the majority of the captains.

- Gravano served as acting consigliere until bumped up to underboss in 1990.

- Armone listed as an official consigliere 1990-1992 is wrong. Gallo was still the official consigliere during this time, and Joe Arcuri seems to have served as the acting consigliere after the indictment of Locascio.

Welcome to the forum.

Following the trial going on down there now, from the Nuova Cupola blitz from last June, Leo Sutera is capo provincia and Fabrizio Messina (brother of Gerlandino) is boss of Porto Empedocle. Both being sentenced but that's where it stand as of now.

This is my first post guys so sorry for the inconvenience, but where do i find info on New Orleans?

Hi, fellow Louisianian here I'm pretty new at this too, but I think the easiest way would be to just use the search function at the top. That should lead you to the threads that may interest you.

Fellow southerner myself, Florida and Georgia, never been to LA though.

If you meant where do i find a New Orleans chart, there is none because there is not an active family there anymore.

I was in NOLA a few weeks ago and asked around. I was told there is a few older guys still alive, but as well as for organization there is nothing to be found. People can make assumptions or claims about it being powerful, but word on the street from the bartenders, strippers, and door guys is that the street gangs pose more of a threat from robbing you than does any gambling, extortion, or shakedowns from the NOLA LCN which is virtually non existant. (What i mean by that is there is no bars on Boubron owned by them, or any large significant betting rings worth worrying about.) Sad turn of events, Louisiana with all of its corruption would be prime for the taking by any intelligent wiseguys.

Yeah, I once read that in Louisiana, corruption wasn't tolerated. It was demanded.

Lousiana Fast

Our former and still very popular governor Edwin Edwards, who served four terms, was released from federal prison in 2011 after serving 10 years for 17 counts including racketeering, money laundering, etc... And at 86 years old, just had a baby with his new wife. Were it possible for him to run again, he'd be re-elected in a heartbeat.

This I agree with. When the bust happened with him trying to fix the riverboat gambling liscenses, I heard the Nola Family was behind it, not sure how true it was. Still a great man!

Good ol' Eddie is supposed to have a reality show on A&E premiering "this summer," but as of Aug. 1 the airing was delayed for unknown reasons.

Even Carlos Marcello respected him, he was caught via wiretap talking about all the politicians he had "in his pocket." About Edwards he said, "Edmund and me alright, but I can't see him everyday. He's the strongest sonofabitchin' governor we ever had. He fuck with women and play dice, but won't drink. How do you like dat?"

Is this a Renaissance for the New York Mafia?



Mancuso, Bonanno boss in
waiting?

Is DiFiore just keeping the seat warm
for Mancuso?
I thought I'd take a look at this, since some readers seem to be commenting an awful lot on a recent post about the Gambino family having 750 made members and associates.

We all know the FBI has only two squads -- roughly 25 agents -- left to keep an eye on, never mind investigate, New York's five Mafia families. So now would seem the perfect time for them to start growing, start doing some real business -- I am talking executions and murders, too -- err, I mean acquisitions and mergers...




"The mob agents are the bastard stepchildren of the FBI these days," an FBI source recently revealed. "Everything is terrorism now. If you want to be somebody with a future in the FBI you want to be assigned to terrorism."

"If you want a couple grand to get an informant on a mob case you're going to be waiting a month," said another FBI source. "If you need that same money for a terrorism case you're going to get it the next day."

One squad handles the Lucchese and Gambino families, while another handles the rest, sources have revealed. This right here says the Gambinos and Lucheses must be the largest...

Don Vito, Montreal boss
It goes without saying that for many years the FBI once had a squad for each of the families -- which is how they so effectively managed to dismantle organized crime in recent years, reaching a crescendo, perhaps, with the infamous Mafia Takedown Day (soon to become a national holiday??)

Anyway this is the best "data" I could found on the size of the mob in New York:


700 made mafia members
More than 7,000 associates

Now, tell me: does 750 seem too large for the Gambinos? (Again, it is a combo of made men and associates.) It still leaved over 6,000 for the other four families...

And why do you think some Feds are "worried that the lack of attention could lead to a Wiseguy resurgence?" as Jerry Capeci recently reported, and who furnished the above data?

I'd say the Feds have damn good reason to worry... and the mob, to fucking celebrate!!!

Idk. It doesn't seem like the mob is ever going to be what it used to be
