- Brocca, Enea, Jennaro and Porchetta were proposed for membership by Fall 1968, however, the planned ceremony was delayed and it's not clear if any of the group had actually been inducted by this time.

 

Edit: Moved Angelo Alioto to Possible Members. In August 1964 an FBI CI (likely Maniaci) stated that Alioto was 'definitely not' a member. The previous year it was reported that Alioto had been 'taken in' after the death of his brother Joseph, but this same report misidentifies others as made.
