Re: 1936 Mangano / Profaci trip
With regard to Jack Parisi, he is stated as related to the Mangano brothers, on Bill Feather's internet site 'Mafia Membership Charts'. He is listed as Gioacchino Parisi in the Gambino chart for 1930s-1950s.

Re: 1936 Mangano / Profaci trip
How were they related?
Jack Parisi’s wife was Theresa Alampi
(https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/749 ... esa-parisi)
Vincent Mangano’s wife was Carolina Cusimano
(https://www.ancestry.ca/discoveryui-con ... 74776:2442)
Philip Mangano’s wife was Agatha Trovato
(https://www.ancestry.ca/discoveryui-con ... 57266:2442)
I’m guessing one of Mangano’s siblings was married to one of Parsi’s but I don’t know who.

I looked into it and found nothing to substantiate it. Maybe there's a relation through other relatives but I'm not sure where Dave got it. Parisi was close to Mangano's actual brother-in-law Gus Scannavino so maybe someone misinterpreted a reference to that.
Parisi was close to the Philly Family's Chester crew which is how he joined that Family and he claimed captain Joe Perugino was his cousin but they were from different Calabrian provinces. I couldn't confirm relation between them either.

Re: 1936 Mangano / Profaci trip
I had assumed that the Jack Parisi info was solid, but it looks like it might not be.
As I am interested in this era, I will keep any eye open for other sources.
For me, the Vincent Mangano/Albert Anastasia link would seem to obviously originate on the waterfront. This would seem to not be contentious, and is my position, unless this is proved to the contrary.
The opposite view, that Anastasia was foisted onto Mangano, by Charlie Lucky, after the Castellammmarese War, just seems a very unlikely legend.

I have just tried to find Theresa Parisi's father, and think I have. He is Paul Alampi, who died in 1953, and is buried in St John's cemetery in Queens NYC. Sadly though, there is no mention of his birth or origin.

I have also just found a Concetta Alampi, in St John's in Queens. Again though, there is no info on origin.

I have just looked at the Gelletta family too. There are some older members of the family buried in NYC, but no info again on origins.

Brief Jack Parisi update:
B. said "I looked into it and found nothing to substantiate it. Maybe there's a relation through other relatives but I'm not sure where Dave got it."
I went back to David Critchley's book to look for the source of his Jack Parisi comment on page 158. It is not sourced.

The Alampis were Calabrian and the name is most common in Gallina in Reggio Calabria.
