Thanks for trying.

Does anyone have a photo or can point me towards a photo of Gotti late 70's/early 80's? (Before be was boss).

Here is a picture of Traina (6th guy on the last row). I'm sure with your skills you can crop it out.

5 Can you double check the Persicos. Alphonse Persico is Consigliere and there's Alphonse Persico the son of Carmine, who's capo. Just making sure there weren't two Alphonse Persico captains simultaneously.

There were two. Alphonse Sr (Carmine's brother) was the Consigliere. Alphonse Jr (Carmine's son) was a Capo.


You can also add Frank DeCicco to the Gambinos. He replaced John Riccobono around 1982/3.


Pogo

Very exaggerated numbers for the Bonannos. During this period they had ~120-125 made members. Nicky Glasses was demoted as underboss. Other than that I think everything else was covered earlier.

frank piccolo? gambino's

The Lukes look a bit small. Numbers wyse and capos, no?

PIDDUU from the bronx, not 18th ave gambino's.

So Gambinos
1 Perrone

Bonannos
2 Break Buccellato
3 Indicate Ferruglia was Capo
4 Add Embarrato.

Every other family is ok?

6 Joseph Gambino, is that the son or Joe from the Bronx?
