This is fact. I will say though, the terms mob and mafia are thrown around a lot. Neither the Galveston or Dixie group were anything approaching what we think of as The Mafia.
The Galveston "mob" was more of a well run family criminal enterprise that likely had an understanding with more highly organized organization(s). The Dixie Mafia was/is much more similar to a collection of unorganized criminals who happened to cross paths frequently and occasionally worked together to do criminal shite.

Fertitta worked for Marcello....answered to him is more accurate Marcello had N.O. and Dallas as well as Houston. Giancana had Chicago and the guys in St Louis and KC answered to him. Trafficante had Miami...all with the blessings of the Commission in NYC
