Excellent discovery. Pietro Ligammari was sponsored into the Bonannos by Sciascia so it makes sense.
Members don't always report to their sponsor's crew but the Ligammaris could have been NYC-NJ members of Sciascia's crew like Giuseppe Arcuri and possibly Sal Montagna.
Didn't Joe Renda also live in NYC before settling in Montreal?
Renda was born in New York City on Jan. 1, 1959. He married Benedetta Castiglione ("Betty") in Montreal on Jul. 30, 1988, with matchmaker Agostino Cuntrera and wife Elena (née Veltri; has ancestry from Cosenza in Calabria) serving as official witnesses to the marriage. Before and after the marriage, Renda and his wife lived in St. Leonard, which is well known as the Italian quarter in Montreal (east end).
When I post a new thread that will contain profiles of Renda, first cousin Joseph Sciascia, and Lorenzo Lo Presti, don't shoot the messenger when I provide details of a document that run counter to some prevailing beliefs about Renda.
