Al 'Scar Face' Capone, head of the Chicago Crime Family, was born in Brooklyn in 1898 and moved to Chicago when he was eighteen years old in 1916. Allegedly, Al Capone orchestrated the February 14th, 1929 St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. Some say it was the most notorious mass murder of the 20th Century.Al Capone head of the Boston Capone Family was born in Avellino Italy in 1895 and came to America through Ellis Island, New York in 1913 when he was eighteen years old.
