I dunno. I think he's from the south, but going by his name, he's Italian. He's a thief. He looked like he was totally down to kill someone in that episode. You have your southern mobs too like the Marcello and Trafficante families, but this dude looked like he was straight out of the sticks. Also, like I said, you had the Elvis impersonator, who Pussy introduced as a "friend of ours". So in Soprano world he could have been made. Hard to say in real life. There had to have been some redneck Italian mobsters in New Orleans through the years. Dallas had a family, too.
"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea

A guy could have the heaviest Minnesota accent ever heard, but if he's an extraordinary earner and has an Italian surname, he's pretty much made man material these days I'd reckon.

I really don't know, but like the other guys said, back in the day you had families also in the Deep South like Louisiana, Texas and even Alabama had a family until 1938. So I reckon it didn't matter what accent someone had. And I also just gave the Minnesota example because it's such a friendly, non-threatening accent and it would be kind of funny if a wiseguy talked like that.
