PETER J. MAGADDINO, cousin of the subject, presently resided at 2494 Independence Avenue, Niagara Falls, New York. A review of his Army service record at the Military Personnel Records Center, St. Louis, Missouri, reflects that he served in the United States Army from January 7, 1942, to May 17, 1945, when he received an honorable discharge. His record lists his birth as October 26, 1906, at Castellammare del Golfo, Italy.
A book entitled “Mafia,” written by ED REID [VERIFY AUTHOR SPELLING AGAINST SCAN], copyrighted in 1952 and published by Random House, was reviewed in Room 315 of the New York City Public Library. On page 56 the book lists “STEFANO MAGARDINO, Niagara Falls” [VERIFY EXACT SPELLING] among what it describes as important individuals in the organization. The book calls the list a so-called Grand Council of the “Mafia,” known as the Syndicate to outsiders. No further identifying information was provided in the book.
