First of all Johhny Joe is pushing 75 years of age, He was 71 when he attended Tony Civella's funeral, he sat next to my uncle. The underboss is not Pete "Civella" its Pete Simone.

Joe Porrello was never a capo his dad was Angelo. KC has two Capo's Cammisano Jr. and Vince Civella.
Jimmy Duardi has been retired for years and died last month at 98.

John Calia is not made he was an associate of John Glorioso who is made active and not listed. This is according to trial docuents.Nate Brancato is retired and has Alzheimers.

Joe Ragusa is retired and and does not live in KC anymore. Tony Simone is only an associate and is not made.He was always more of a businessman then a gangster. Pete and Tommy "highway" Simone were the gangsters.

The merry ferryl information is from 1968. 3/4 of the names died before 1980. Made guys you dont have listed are

Carlo Cavallaro
Joe C moteina sr.
Pete Tamburello
Paul Silvio
Jerry Cammisano
Termini
Frank Deluna


Retired made guys
Paul Varsalona
Jack Lascoula

Dead guys since Tony Civella

Carl Deluna
Ralph Siragusa
John Constanza
Frank Tousa
Jimmy Duardi
Chuck "chuckie moragan" Cacioppo

Chuck Cacioppo Jr. was said to have been made in the mid80's but I have not found verification.

Nick Labruzza is said to be made but I have trial transcrips which indicate he was still and associate in 1989.

Believe it or not a lot of the guys from the 70's and 80's are still alive, but are not active and many dont even in live in the state anymore, quite a few live in AZ now. Sorry but this chart is not even close.
