the youngest and the oldest mafioso to be made

I wanted to make a list of the younger and older mobster to be made

The oldest

Matthew Madonna b.1935 made in 1998 at the age of 63

Alphonse "Little Al" D'Arco b.1932 made on August 23, 1982 at the age of 50

Peter Gotti born in 1939 made in 1988 at the age of 49

Thomas Agro born in 1931 made in the 1975 or 1976 at the age of 44/45

Vittorio "Little Vic" Amuso b.1934 made in 1977 at the age of 43

Richard V. Gotti b.1946 made in 1988 at the age of 42


The younger

Liborio Salvatore "Barney" Bellomo b.1957 made at the age of 20

John A. Gotti b.1964 made in 1988 at the age of 24

Nicodemo Salvatore "Nicky" Scarfo Jr b.1964 made in 1990 at the age of 26

Carlo Gambino made at age of 19 back to Sicily.

I imagine that some of the oldest would have been people made in 75,76,77 after the books had been reopened.

Harry the hunchback was the youngest guy ever made in the u.s I belie.it was said he was made at 17or18 years old I think.I know it was younger then 19

strax I meant with the younger ,not the young gangsters from the prohibition until the meeting in Apalachin:like luciano,bonanno etc but only the mobster that despite their young age,become made men like Bellomo for example

Cali was made really young I think.

Calì was 32 when was made in 1997.

Alphonse Trucchio.

For the youngest, Spilotro was either late 20s or early 30s. He was only 32 when he was sent out to oversee Las Vegas. Nick Ferriola may be made in Chicago (although most posters say no).

Oldest: Victor Spilotro at age 54 in Chicago in the late 1980s or early 1990s

Dino Marino in Chicago recently in 2008 was early 50s

Mike Rizzitello in LA was close to 60 when made in the mid 1980s

Jimmy Caci in LA was made sometime around 1980 when he was 55

Ralph Natale was made in the early 1990s in Philly when he was close to 60.

Bill Bonanno 20 1952
Harry Riccobene 18 1927 i think
Carlo Gambino 19 1921

I highly doubt Victor Spilotro was ever made ESPECIALLY AFTER what happened to his brothers. I doubt Nick Ferriola is made either but probably will be at some point as he went away and kept his mouth shut. As far as Dino Marino, Louie's son, it wouldn't surprise me if he has been made.

I'm talking about in Italy, early twenties.

Harry Riccobene was made when he was 16 years old

Where are you getting the years these people were made like Gambino and Cali?

everything I read about Harry the hunch said he was made at 16 as well making him the youngest ever. Heres a story kitty cap did on him when he died in prison

Gravo made some old hooch on his death bed in his book 'Underboss'.

Cant recall name or age. But he's a contender.

Ronnie Giallanzo was in his 20's
Al Trucchio was also in his early 20's

The guy your may be think of is Joseph Paruta made on his death bed.

Super young

yeah hes supposedly the youngest known person to be made in the u.s.

I heard Crazy Joe Gallo was made at 17

Paruta was 59 when he died.

Al trucchio when he was 21. Tumack.

Carlo Taccetta, John Perna...

Source?

Salvatore Montagna got made quite young, wasn't he?

Andy DiSimone, Freddy Santorelli,

Craig DePalma was about 25, but his father was a skipper at the time. The second generation kids always get made younger than everybody else. Nepotism. That's just the way it is.

But on the other side of that coin, anyone who drags their own flesh and blood into that life has to have a screw loose. Especially today.

A lot of the Scarfo guys, Leonetti-27, Testa- 24, Frank Narducci- 27 , Philip Narducci-23 or 24, Salvatore Scafidi-24, Joey Pungitore-26, Anthony Pungitore-early 30's,Salvatore Grande-27, Joseph Grande-25,Gino Milano-22,Nicky Milano-24.

Tommy red Anzellotto Was in his late 20's

Great article on Harry "The Hunchback" Riccobene thanks for sharing that with us.

Frankie Pearl Federico, born in 1928, was made in 1989 after the Kubecka/Barstow murders.

The Snake would have been pretty young wouldn't he?

in this day and age they can't afford not to plug ferriola

Agreed. Cicero will make Ferriola if they haven't already done it. After all, His relative, Joe Ferriola, was a legend in the Outfit and was the Capo within the Extended Cicero Crew under Auippa for years.

Victor Spilotro is not made.
Dino Marino is made. (Cicero)

Vic spilotro is a nobody. Dino Marino is a very tough Guy. Nick F. may never be made IMO, but who knows. Cicero will start to scout younger & younger talent, they're not in a hurry to make guys.

Nick just isn't a tough Guy in that vein, they'd be smart to keep him in the wings, he's a smart businessman

I think Cicero may have made Nick. I'll check into it.
The guy is good. He is like another Dominic Cortina or Donald Angelini when it comes to Bookmaking.

Precisely.

I heard he was never made.

LOL.

Lucky Luciano's nephew Tony Lucania was made at like 80.

Does anybody have a link or know where to find the wiretap transcript mentioned in the Kitty Capparella article about Harry Hunch? Its got to be good reading.

""The FBI wiretap, considered a "classic," captured mobsters talking about La Cosa Nostra and its transition of power for the first time. Riccobene said he had "no respect" for Scarfo, after he stabbed a sailor, Joseph Dugan, for no reason inside the Oregon Diner in 1963.""
