You may be thinking of the Chicago "Outfit" under Torrio and Capone, which was never a Mafia family.
Okay thanks for clearing that up. Yeah, I was thinking of Capone etc. Actually, the reason I posted was the fact that when I am corrected by someone else, I tend to remember it more than by just reading others' posts.

So, what actually defines a Mafia Family? How would you say which Family is Mafia, and which Family isn't?
