The Scafidis are technically three generations involved because it skipped one generation. Gaetano "Big Tom" and Joseph Scafidi made their sons, but Gaetano Sr., who is Big Tom's grandson and namesake, was never a member and neither were any of the other grandchildren. However, their great-grandchildren Gaetano Jr. "Tommy" and Salvatore "Tory" were made, though their father was Gaetano Sr. who was never more than a neighborhood guy/low-level associate.
Fairly likely that Big Tom and Joe Scafidi's father, uncles, etc. were made in Belmonte Mezzagno, so they could go back farther there. Morello seems to think that Cheech Barale and the Scafidis were all made in Sicily before they came to the US.
Speaking of Caccamo, that is where John Stanfa is from. So you've got Stanfa, a Caccamese mafioso, coming to New York in the 1960s where he gets support from an NY family run by a mob boss originally from Caccamo (Gambino), then moves to Philly where he has relatives and gets recommended as a member to the local family which itself has Caccamo roots. It's not complicated but it's easy to overlook the logic in these things. The path a lot of these guys take isn't as random as it seems.
