Canzoneri. This is a legendary boxer, who became a made member after he finished his boxing career
Thanks man. Was he related to John Canzoneri?

I asked more or less the same question a few months ago, some more names came out: viewtopic.php?f=32&t=4339

Pogo, I think Bill places Canzoneri capo in the 40s and 50s

Vito Bonventre was a "group leader", as Joe Bonanno called it, under Schiro and likely under Maranzano as well. Although Bonventre was killed soon after Maranzano took over from Schiro.

Bill Bonanno (from info from his father) also named the following as early Capos.

Vincent D'Anna, Sebastiano “Buster” Domingo, Charles DiBenedetto, Joseph Colletti, Biagio Restivo, Natale Evola, Anthony “Tony” Canzonieri and Vincenzo Tarantola. Though it is unclear if they were Capos under Marazano. I believe Domingo for sure was.

Hello fellas, I wanna know your opinions about, what guys were a captains on the Maranzano’s admin in 1931 We know that Jangelo Caruso was underboss and Joe Bonanno was a captain. Probably a “kids of future day” also were a captains: Vincent Danna, Gaspare Digregorio, Natale Evola.
Probably a Francesco italiano, future consigliere of Joe Bonanno, and John Tartamella and Frank Garofalo.
