Chicago Outfit Places of Origin

Chicago Outfit Places of Origin
I'm making up a reference list that gives the place of birth of Outfit member and important Italian associates, along with the places of birth of their parents (or grandparents - whichever was born in Italy). In this list there are sometimes two places of birth for their parent/ancestor: the first is the father's side and the second the mother's. This is what I started with so far. If anyone wants to add names in the comments that would be great. (Unfortunately I couldn't keep the formatting.)

Re: Chicago Outfit Places of Origin
I forgot that PolackTony wrote that “'Monte Luvito' thing is a misspelling of Motta di Rovito, a frazione of Rovito (“Ruvítu” in Calabrisi), Cosenza." I think that's probably correct, but unfortunately there's no edit button.

Re: Chicago Outfit Places of Origin
Correct, I’m pretty confident that it was actually Rovito.
Planning to add some more names here but too busy right now to really go through my files.

Re: Chicago Outfit Places of Origin
Nice progress. If I had the time I could fill in a bunch more of these, as I was able to confirm genealogies on the majority of these guys. The issue is that I never condensed my notes into a single excel file, so it would take me some time to pull them all together. If they haven't been updated once I have a chance to do this, I'll put up what I have.Antiliar wrote: ↑Mon Nov 08, 2021 9:11 pm Work in progress:
