Mount Vernon borders the North Bronx and was loaded with Italians back in that era. To the best of my knowledge, it was always Lucchese territory. John Manfredonia was in charge back then. They called him "Peanuts." He was murdered in his own house back in the late '70s.

To the best of my knowledge, he was the only made guy in the area at the time in question (although there were loads of connected guys). So if the Imbrognos were ever considered to be "important," I still don't think either one was made.

Footnote: My wife owns and operates two laundromats in Mount Vernon, so I'm up there all the time. The area is now home to one of the largest Brazilian populations in the entire country. Channel 13 recently did a documentary about São Paulo, and that neighborhood was referenced as "Little São Paulo in New York." But as a whole, Mount Vernon is predominantly African-American today. Hardly any Italians left at all.
