If so were they also connected early on from 1900-1930 as well as after 1930 ?


Through my research I do know that Doc Farone was definitely connected to the old Genovese Family through capo Jimmy Angelina's crew, and through Meyer Lansky - which by proxy connects him to Jimmy Blue Eyes.


Sounds similar to the connections with Genovese and Lansky to some guys in that Syracuse Camorra clan


Well, thats probably not a coincidence. Neither is the fact that after the Magaddino and Bufalino Families, NYC's Luciano/Genovese Family was -- without a doubt -- the most prominent Mafia group in upstate NY. So it makes sense that they also exerted influence and dominated many sections of upstate.
