    Notes

    - Salvatore Badalamenti, Thomas DiBella and Ambrose Magliocco were former captains who had been demoted shortly after Colombo's appointment to Boss. Colombo made Vincent Aloi captain of a new crew and also maintained his own decina, comprised of his former crew members as well as several individuals involved in the Gallo conflict. Some of those direct with Colombo would eventually be shifted to other crews or promoted to head their own.

    - Scarpa made several misidentifications that were cleared up in the following years. These included:

    1. Charles Clemenza - Later confirmed reference to Fred Clemenza.

    2. Joseph Giammarino - Later confirmed reference to Joseph Brancato.

    Edit1: Moved Sebastiano D'Agati to Possibles.
