Wounded was Antonio Sunsaro and Jerome Benvinetto. Vincezo was 38 years old and was quite an important figure on the national level regardin the Mafia. He apparently was closely associated with Salvatore Maranzano, onetime "boss of all bosses." Some thought he was killed because of this association, but the news and grapevine reported that Troia was trying to muscle in on some of the rackets in Newark, NJ when he was killed.

He and his wife Ninfa eventually moved to California, and they never had children. Joe Troia from Rockford was my father's cousin - Natale was my grandfather's brother. Here's that part of the family tree: Settimo (b. 1866) and Antonina (Sciortino) Troia Children: - Gaspar (d. 1963) and Mary (d. 1977) - Natale - Tony (d. 1976) and Sarah (d. 2006) - Mamie and Joe Amato - Jack (d. 1973) and Pauline - Vincenzo ("Jim") (d. 1973) and Ninfa (d. 1994) - Joseph (1909 - 2007) and Mary (my grandparents) Settimo and Natale came to US from Palermo in 1909 Family followed in 1912 Do you think it may be the same Vincenzo? Settimo had a brother named Santino, and there are several Troia's descended from him in Madison as well. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
