Re: The ENTIRE list of the Lucchese Family during 2006 from the Federal Probation Department

If you look at the Lucchese membership totals, both estimated and actually listed, they've been remarkably stable for the past 40+ years.

Re: Random historic info

as far as I know in Favara there is currently only one Cosa Nostra family, the only cities with two families are Catania and Gela (obviously leaving aside the city of Palermo that has 33 families)
