  • Dude,

    you missed Accardo to the left of Heeney - did you know? Thanks for the tour, it's awesome.

  • Thanks for the comments. As for Accardo he's in the huge mausoleum across the street from Mt. Carmel in Queen of Heaven. I would of tracked him down as well but he's in a private room and he's not in the database listing at the kiosk station in the cemetery office. I'll be going back to Chicago eventually where I plan to track down other gangster grave sites who I missed out on or didn't look for all together.

  • Also be sure to check out the videos I made Grave Hunting Chicago Style: Mt. Carmel Part I & III. I'd also like to mention Sam Giancana was murdered in his back yard by an unknown assailant. Various rumors to have done it have been discussed. Also Henry Spingola was Angelo Genna's brother in law and he was also a very well known lawyer in the Italian community back in the 20s. He was murdered for refusing to contribute donations to the legal fund of Anselmi and Scaliese (sp).

  • Hey Man, you did a good job of filming the graves, however, you need to do your research a little better, if you giving a history lesson as you claim you are. The Gennas are not part of the Black Hand. They were not domestic terrorists, which is what the Black Hand was essentially. Come on. And Mr. Giancana was not put down in his back yard, but in his basement. Etc Etc. Good effort though. I think your heart is in the right place.

  • They said the same thing at Rosehill Cemetery about not being able to tell you where certain people are buried.To the clown that said he couldn't tell me where Oscar Meyer was buried,I FOUND IT!!! BEWARE THEY WILL LOCK YOU IN!!!!!JERKS!!!!!

  • Thanks for the series of videos. Your knowledge of '20's Chicago gangsters is great.

  • Spingola was father in-law of Angelo Genna, when Genna was shot to death when he was on his way to buy his new bride a home. Genna he was carrying over $6,000 in cash to buy the house. When he was blown a way by O'Banion avengers Weiss-Drucci-Moran with shot guns around the spring of 1925

  • Interesting stuff for people interested in Chicago gangsters of the 1920s and 30s.
