Sidenote: Its funny how much knowledge I've acquired on the Original Bonannos, I am totally in the dark about the players in the Family for the past 20yrs.... I believe that unlike the "Gold standard" Genovese's, there is broken lineage to its founder. For example, if you trace all the Bosses and Capos, there is no separation from Lucky Luciano but more specifically Vito Genovese. The philosophies and connections to its origins is still there. The Bonannos don't have a trace to Mr. B, the Bonventres etc. Of course you have bloodlines from soldiers that are still prevelent (Asaros, Grimaldis etc) but not the founder. Can it even be said that there is a large base of Castellamarese?
