WILLIE "GUARINO" MORETTI POSSIBLE COUSIN OF FRANK COSTELLO

[Noel Castiglia]

Articles have been written claiming Willie Moretti the NJ mob boss

was a cousin of Frank Costello. William aka Willie was killed by

orders of Albert Anastasia Oct 4, 1951 at Joe's Elbow Room in

Cliffside Park NJ.  He was born in the USA in New York City

on June 4, 1894. His parents were Gesualdo and Angena Moretti.

He was protected by Frank Castiglia until he spoke too much

at the Kefauver Investigations and under pressure reluctantly

had to let loose of Willie.
