Bugsy Siegel: Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel (February 28, 1906 – June 20, 1947) was a Jewish American mobster.  Siegel was known as one of the most "infamous and feared gangsters of his day".  Described as handsome and charismatic, he became one of the first front-page celebrity gangsters.  He was also a driving force behind the development of the Las Vegas Strip.  Siegel was not only influential within the Jewish mob but, like his friend and fellow gangster Meyer Lansky, he also held significant influence within the Italian-American Mafia and the largely Italian-Jewish National Crime Syndicate.

Momo Adamo: Girolomo "Momo" Adamo (1895–1956) was an Italian American mobster in the American Mafia.  He lived in Chicago and Kansas City before moving to Los Angeles in the 1930s and soon became underboss to Jack Dragna in the Los Angeles crime family.  His brother Joseph Adamo was also a member of the crime family.  Both he and his brother were well connected criminals in San Diego, working with such mobsters as Frank Bompensiero.  In 1950, Momo was arrested along with several members of Jack Dragna's family including Tom Dragna (brother), Louis Dragna (nephew), and two men named Frank Paul Dragna (his son and nephew, respectively) after Jack fled the state after being named in the California Crime Commission report as a member of a crime syndicate in Los Angeles.  The five of them were taken into custody by the Los Angeles Police Department, who believed they were responsible for bombing Mickey Cohen's home or knew who was.  They were all released without being charged when the police couldn't find evidence of their involvement (Tom built the bomb, but otherwise none of them were involved).

He managed to keep the peace in his crime family due to the support of the Gambino crime family of New York.  When Junior's original underboss Ilario "Larry Baione" Maria Antonio Zannino was sentenced to thirty years in prison in 1987, it further weakened Junior's position.  With Zannino in jail, Grasso became underboss.

It developed its "closest ties" with the Genovese family, and its remnants or former members are now part of the Genovese family's 116th Street Crew.
