This thread was more about Made guys transferring but your right John switched families cause his father in law was able to get him straightened out faster then if he stayed around the colombos. Dannys daughter was drop dead gorgeous I wonder what she looks like these days. Maybe some of you guys who go on Facebook can do some sleuthing and help a guy out.

Joseph Scalleat- Scranton-Wilkes-Barre and Philly (May have been the liason between the families)
Anthony DeStefano- Scranton-Wilkes-Barre and Buffalo
Fratianno was made in the LA Family, when he got out of prison, him and Roselli "transferred" to Chicago. When Dominick Brookliere of LA went to prison in 1976, Fratianno transferred back to LA after he was offered the role of Acting Underboss. In the past I wondered why LA would request Fratianno. Part of me kinda wonders if Brookliere and Lo Cicero were setting Fratianno up to bury himself. That's what happened when Fratianno misrepresented himself to NY as the acting boss.
Frattianno was born and raised in East Cleveland and was close to Tony Milano and John Scalish. Frattiano went to L.A because Tony Milano arranged that because Scalish refused to open the books. Frattianno was a very respected mobster in Northeast Ohio and carried alot of weight. Weren't Peter & Carmen Milano out in L.A. by 1976? I'm 100% positive that they were. Jimmy was considered a high ranking associate of Cleveland and was also called upon to resolve problems for the Cleveland family...ex: Danny Greene among others.
Carmen milano didn't move to LA until like 83 or 84

Yeah frank died in sugarland Texas. He lived pretty long for a guy who claimed to be dying since the 1970s.

I don't think I knew this. That might explain Tronolone's close relationship to John Simone, as Simone started out as an associate(?) in Buffalo before settling in Trenton.

Could be , I never knew Simone started in Buffalo, Did Simone ever spend time in FLA? I am sure when Peanuts was in Floridia he rubbed shoulders with wiseguys from all over.

Yep, Simone lived in Florida starting in the late 1960s and into the 1970s when the state of NJ began their investigations. He definitely associated with Tronolone down there (including after the Bruno murder), but I'm thinking it goes back much further. Simone was very nationally connected... born in Pennsylvania, raised in Niagara Falls where he was involved in bootlegging but maintained ties to the Trenton/Philly area where he had cousins. Officially moved to Trenton in the 1940s where he became close to Sam DeCavalcante. Sam was proposed for membership in the Philly family but his father knocked it down -- seems possible that Simone was proposed into the Philly family around this time as well.
