There was one guy who was a potential fit but died in 2001 so it can't be him. The only NY guy I'm getting that died between 1975 and 1985 with this name is:HairyKnuckles wrote: ↑Sun Dec 26, 2021 12:09 pm Salvatore Trapani (?) (This guys´ dob is still a mystery. He was still alive as of 1976, but deceased by mid 1980s. All I have is a home address (349 Court Street, Brooklyn) which he occupied in the 1950s and in the 1960s)

Turone is an accurate name, you'll find it in Calabria. But I'm not seeing anyone with that fits with that surname who died in 1985 in NY, NJ or CT. There is a Tirrone who died in 1986 though.HairyKnuckles wrote: ↑Sun Dec 26, 2021 12:09 pm *(pho) Sam Turone (Turone and Gaspare Romano was mentioned on tape by John Gotti as made members who had died in 1985. The name Turone is possibly butchered, he could be identical with Salvatore Trapani. Turone was under Mario Traina.)
Is he related to Joseph Zingaro/Zangara who was listed as a captain in 1963? I'm having difficulty confirming Joseph's identity and one wrong thing can lead from Sicily to Salerno or Cosenza in between.HairyKnuckles wrote: ↑Sun Dec 26, 2021 12:09 pm *Anthony Zangara (Jan 16, 1924) (This guy´s made status is murky. He is listed (unless he is confused with somebody else) as a captain on the Valachi charts. He is also listed on a LE chart from the mid 1980s. However, more reliable FBI charts does not list him as a made guy.)
