Harry Bennett worked for Henry Ford in the 30's does anyone know if he was in the Mafia or just a thug there are suppose to be ties to murder incorporated and...
No is the answer to both questions. ... From: mauriecostlow <mauriecostlow@...> Subject: [americanmafia] Harry Bennett To: americanmafia@yahoogroups.com...
Anyone who wants to know more about it should read: Alan A. Block, "East Side West Side" Dave. ... From: Ryan <ryan_12177@...> Subject: [americanmafia]...
I agree. Block is the best word here. As I recall, "Murder Incorporated" was originally coined by a newspaperman as just a synonym for the alleged national...
Hi Rick You're right again. The Reles people were basically gang figures with their own enterprises who became renowned for the quality of their murder...
I agree wholeheartedly with Dave and Rick.. I also hate that apparently everyone who did murder for hire in those days was a member of "Murder Inc"... and I...
Interesting you should say that. I have a friend who is doubtful that Anastasia was a member in the 1920s, in part because of his non-Sicilian heritage. ...
I've had doubts about Frankie Yale sometimes for the same reason. Does Gentile say anything much about him? Seems like we might have gone over this before. ...
... that Anastasia was a member in the 1920s, in part because of his non- Sicilian heritage. Yet Gentile does imply that Anastasia was up there by 1931,...
... I don't recall any mention of Yale. But I'm not sure Gentile would have had occasion to mention him. Perhaps Dave remembers spotting something. - Tom...
Yeah. Coming back to the discussion over Masseria, Gentile says that at General Assembly meetings, they all spoke "our language," which was Sicilian. (This...
Sorry, no. One of the things is that nobody seems to have queried Gentile on anything he said, or didn't say. It looks to me like he was allowed to ramble...
What was Genovese's tirade about and what did Anastasia do to put a stop to it? I'd never heard of that before, but I don't have access to gentile's memoirs......
... Genovese was apparently in a homicidal rage over the 1932 killings of the Neapolitan Volpe brothers in Pittsburgh. He personally summoned Pittsburgh's John...
Tom, is there any way we can get to Ryan some of the Gentile pages? Last time I tried, there was a query over copyright that scared me off. Once, as you...
And, as we know, the Bazzano episode was recorded by turncoat Angelo Lonardo in the 1980s, and in a 1964 FBI report (in which the details are slightly at...

I haven#'t the time to copy (digital camera photograph) all the pages from my translation. If Ryan wants me to photograph and send to Tom, by email, passages,...
It sounds messy. But I don't think anyone in the world would bother to object if I photographed under 10 pages from the manuscript and for private researches,...
... What form is it in? Is it paper hardcopy? Microfilm? If I paid for the cost of copying, shipping and your trouble, could we work something out? - Tom...
You guys don't have to go through all of that trouble for me. I'll likely send you guys anything I have a theory on in the future and you can just let me know...

Hey, another Californian. I live in Orange County, just south of Los Angeles. Rick ... From: Ryan <ryan_12177@...> Subject: [americanmafia] Re: Harry...
It has become quite clear to me that Genovese was a major power without Luciano. This puts any stories featuring Genovese as a Luciano gunman/lackey highly in...
I can understand the hypothesis. In fact, Genovese was one of those visiting Tony Parretti in the Sing Sing death house in 1927. Parretti was a Neapolitan...
