Who Is The Genovese Family?

After D'Aquila was murdered, "Joe the Boss" Masseria became the boss of bosses, according to AmericanMafia.com. He is credited as the Genovese family's first boss. The Genovese was the biggest of the five New York City crime families, according to jabot wham on Youtube.  One of the most famous mobsters, Charlie "Lucky" Luciano, ran the syndicate after Masseria died,

He was succeeded by one of the most famous mobsters in history. He got the nickname Lucky because he was assaulted by a rival gang and was left for dead, but he survived and gained even more power.
