Years ago, as in back in the 1920's, there were men who moved from Newark to Cliffside, Fairview, Fort Lee area who were labeled as "mafia". This is what one of my aunts told me. But I believe they were Camorristi who still had ties to Naples. The families still operated in Newark. Most were bootleggers, ran numbers/gambling dens, whorehouses, business owners/fronts. I can't find any info or links to prove it though. So maybe they were transitioning into the American Mafia/CN
It's kind of strange that the man, possible camorrista I mentioned above just so happened to own a business in the very same location as one of these "Mafia" connected men. Now, the building was boarded up for a lil while before he bought it but I find it too much of a coincidence.
That's my family Kay, it's not me
