From the info I have, Roland Salvatore "Goldie" Ignoffo was born in Chicago in 1915 to Salvatore Ignoffo and Caterina "Catherine/Mary" Greco, both of Sambuca Zabut, Agrigento (hometown of Michele Merlo). Roland later married Christine Nappi, sister of Romero Nappi and Gloria Fosco Nappi. Thus, Roland Ignoffo was the brother-in-law also of Mondo Fosco and the uncle by marriage of Joe Fosco.
Anyone know if Roland "Goldie" Ignoffo Sr was a connected guy? If so, could be a big deal given that his family was from Sambuca. Could've been a way that the Abruzzese Nappi/Iorii family may have married into a family with a pre-existing mafia heritage.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
The Muffler place was Sonny Ignoffo - his wife was the sister of Dom Senese, but he was not an Outfit guy. I don't believe he is related to Ronnie Ignoffo. Ronnie was on the Streets and San crew with a good friend of mine. He Ronnie's father was very close to Jasper Campise and a regular at his antiques store. Ronnie used to be a big steroid guy and a bouncer at Blondie's Lounge on Diversey. My view was that he was just muscle, but I've always wondered who did the hits of Gattuso and Campise.Snakes wrote: ↑Mon Jan 24, 2022 7:40 amRonald Ignoffo is 72 and still alive, as far as I know.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Yeah, I have Ronnie Ignoffo as born 1949 and apparently still alive. Hasn't appeared in the news so far as I know since his 1984-1985 case with DiVarco.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Sonny I believe was Salvatore Ignoffo, husband of Lorraine Senese and son of Giuseppe "Joseph" Ignoffo Sr and Rosaria "Sarah" Provenza (of Cefalu, Palermo province). He was thus the nephew of Roland "Goldie" Ignoffo who I noted above. So with this family, we have marriage links to the Nappi/Iorii/Foscos and Seneses. I believe that Joe Ignoffo Sr was the owner of Ignoffo trucking back in the '60s when the Trib had an article discussing funny business with streets and San-connected trucking companies. His son Joseph Ignoffo Sr was noted as a Streets and San employee at that time. In the 2000s we of course see a Joseph Ignoffo, owner of Ignoffo Trucking, indicted in the Hired Truck scandal. Now, this guy was born around 1962, so I think he was the son or nephew of Joseph Ignoffo Jr.SolarSolano wrote: ↑Mon Jan 24, 2022 8:43 amThe Muffler place was Sonny Ignoffo - his wife was the sister of Dom Senese, but he was not an Outfit guy.

Given the Streets and San MO I'd strongly suspect that Ronnie Ignoffo is related to these Ignoffos. I note that in several records, Roland "Goldie" Ignoffo appears as "Ronald Ignoffo". I would bet that Ronnie is actually his son. Roland Ignoffo and Christine Nappi had a son named Roland Jr (who appears in one record as "Ronald Ignoffo" also) who was born in 1946 and died in 1948. Then, in 1949 Ronnie Ignoffo was born. I think that part of the confusion may be that Roland Sr may have also gone by "Ronald".
Does anyone know for sure who Ronnie's parents were?

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Was there a guy named Joe Zucchero indicted with DiVarco, Arrigo and Ignoffo and those guys who died in a car accident prior to trial? I was always curious if that was the father of the two guys who opened Mr. Beef in River North. I was told the father worked for DiVarco.

From the info I have, Roland Salvatore "Goldie" Ignoffo was born in Chicago in 1915 to Salvatore Ignoffo and Caterina "Catherine/Mary" Greco, both of Sambuca Zabut, Agrigento (hometown of Michele Merlo). Roland later married Christine Nappi, sister of Romero Nappi and Gloria Fosco Nappi. Thus, Roland Ignoffo was the brother-in-law also of Mondo Fosco and the uncle by marriage of Joe Fosco.
Anyone know if Roland "Goldie" Ignoffo Sr was a connected guy? If so, could be a big deal given that his family was from Sambuca. Could've been a way that the Abruzzese Nappi/Iorii family may have married into a family with a pre-existing mafia heritage.
Maybe this has already been discussed in the past, but the drug dealer John DeJohn murdered in 1981 was Nick DeJohn's son. He was born 1929 in Chicago to Nick DeJohn and Lena Zingerelli.
I believe they had Popeye Arrigo on tape saying he borrowed a guy's car to do the DeJohn Jr. hit with Ron Ignoffo.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
New article on the current state of the Chicago Outfit. Not much new. They interviewed John Binder

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Nothing new, but do think Binder is an expert. Anyone take his tour? Would like to this year and pick his brain about current guys.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Haven’t taken his tour but have communicated with Binder. He told me that his takes on the recent/current Outfit are taken from contacts in LE, including his claim that they have been involved in drugs.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Very few experts on the current Outfit. If anyone was going to qualify for one, Binder would be a top candidate in my opinion.PolackTony wrote: ↑Wed Jan 26, 2022 9:34 amHaven’t taken his tour but have communicated with Binder.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
He's a good dude, he's extremely responsive and will gladly answer questions sent to him as I have done on occasion. Interesting tidbit on the drug stuff Tony. He doesn't seem overly interested in the crew designation debate fwiw, doesnt think much has changed in that regard from what I can tell.
