Biography

Angelo Gagliano is born 12 November 1862 and baptized the next day, named after his paternal grandfather. He is the son of Salvatore Gagliano and Leoluchina lo Bosco. His godparents are Maestro Angelo Gagliano and Bernarda Arsena, a married couple.^[1] Angelo's godfather is his first cousin.

Angelo's godparents have at least two sons who are also named Angelo.^[2][3]

Angelo marries Giovanna di Miceli on 2 February 1902. His parents have both died by this time.^[4]

Disambiguation Notes: Angelo is an uncle of Dr. Michele Navarra, a future mafia boss in Corleone. He is not the Bronx plasterer (b. 1878) who employs Jack Dragna at his New York City laundry in the 1910s, and is implicated in the Baff murder. This Angelo Gagliano is the gabelloto who manages feudo Malvello with his brother. Calogero.

By at least one report, the man of the same name who leads the Fratuzzi in the 1920s with brothers Luciano and Calogero is much younger than Angelo, but by others, he is confirmed as the same gabelloto.

Another Angelo Gagliano, close in age, who also emigrated to New York, was born in 1878 and has connections to the Rao family.
