Sandino Pandolfo needs to be removed, he was dead.
Michael Geralle was in Gene Catena's crew.
There are several errors on this list Chris. Off the top of my head; Franse was killed in the 1940s and not sure if he was made at all; Anthony Ruggiano was a Gambino member; Ianniello was under Carillo; Mickey Dimino (true name Michael Generoso was acting for his father Vincenzo; Gaetano Martino was a Gambino member; Joseph Gagliano died in 1947: Louis Pacella was made in 1976; Salvatore DiPietro was under Generoso; Mauro Manna - was he made???, died in the 1950s; Angelo Fiore was under Celano most probably; Arthur Palumbo was made in 1976; Were the Iacones made with the Genovese Family??? Charley Capociro is most likely Carmelo Coppolino; Thomas Lombardi under Funzi Tieri; Alfonso Roccomonte not made. In fact, I dont know who that is.
Thank you. I updated the excel with your corrections. That's why I posted it, if there's anything else you see, please don't hesitate.
Got 170 names complete out of 252 so far.
Keep in mind Chris, the lists the FBI produced in the early 1960s are very unreliable. The lists produced later on are much better to use as a reference when making these charts. Usually, those lists comes with "deceased members lists" as well, that is, names on confirmed members who have died. If you like, I will send them to you. PM me.

Many of the names you told me were dead I already have checked off. When I look these guys up I literally look up everything including when they died. Using Ancestry or newspaper or MF, I have better success which lowers my margin of error when I go through as much as I can. Different spellings, names, nicknames, their parents, mother's surnames, where they were in the census. What the newspapers said, what MF says, google searches. But I do make mistakes and that's why I recheck my work. Still though, any and all help is appreciated. You've looked at this family longer, it's kind of your expertise, I'll defer to you.
The deceased names I came up with I deleted and didn't look up their their parents and grandparents and what part of Italy they came from but now I'm thinking a deceased member section may be relevant and add to the knowledge base. Only question is how far back? 5 years, 10 years, 20? I'd cap it to after 1950-1955 up to 63. I'm open to everyone's thoughts on this. They can't be factored in to the stats as it'll skew the results.
With the Gambinos if someone died within the last 5 years of 1963 I included him with the rest but wrote Deceased and listed their information. I think doing it that way with the Gens may also shed light. As a theoretical, showing three deceased Corleonese who were part of the Coppola crew may show continuities.
I'll DM you for the list. Thank you.
