Despite being a member of Castellano's crew in the movie Gotti, Ralph Galione actually worked in Gotti's Bergin Hunt & Fish Club crew.

Galione was killed because too much heat was generated on him after the McBratney hit went wrong. Gambino feared he would cooperate with the feds so he gave the order.

Tommy Genovese was a Colombo associate who, like you said, was a distant relative of Don Vito. He was born in Italy but later moved to the U.S. and started living it up on Lower East Side. As a Colombo mobster, he served under Michael Franzese. Genovese was good friends with both Mikey and John. Persico put a contract on Genovese after he was released from serving nearly a decade in prison. He was murdered in 1979 by a couple of recruits from John Matera's crew.
