Besides the subsequent shelving of Bonanno loyalist, this is why by the mid 70s, its damn near a totally different group of guys.


Yes, Lol.... many, many old-timers and even their younger members were largely drawn from the "bloodline" of former members lineage. I have several relatives who were goodfellas with them, and this was how it was done. (I saw it firsthand).

Nowadays it's very different, but even today you still see a bit of it. But in the 2000s it's a different world for all the crews, for CN in general.
