My grandfather was from sicily and worked 50 years on the railroad, double shifts during ww2 while my dad his son fought in the war so most Itallian people. Who came over were honest hard working family people
My grandmother met. Al Capone when he was on the lam . He stood up and said.’’’ Hi,I’m Al Capone’’ my Grandmother said.’’ Yes, nice to meet you,I’,m the Queen of Sheba’’ it really was Al Capone….
I'm from Dubuque, Iowa. The local story is that he liked to come over to Dubuque when things got too hot in Chicago and he liked to stay at what is now the Hotel Julien.
My mom was a nurse at Mercy Hospital in Chicago. One time when I was a kid, she cried when they had a Chicago crime story on TV and it sort of glorified Nitti. But my mom knew his wife and he had beaten her to a pulp. Nitti was horrible. My folks are now forever across the street at Mary, Queen of Heaven.
I grew up in Chicago ,I went to High School with Frank Nitti lll a no good heroin peddler , That didn't care about getting kid's hooked up on Dope back in the 1970's Horrible people
It just cracks me up how these thugs spend their lives robbing and killing people and get a decent burial with giant crosses and biblical passages carved on their tomb stones.
My mom was a student nurse at Mercy Hospital. She was attending St. Xavier! She was a nurse there when they brought in Theresa Capone, Al Capones mother!
I worked for someone who was best friends with dennis farina back in 1982 i got to meet and talk to him and i made him a pizza and he even gave me an autographed hundred dollar bill i was working in a pizza place that my boss owned in streamwood Illinois and Dennis was there got to talk to him all evening. So cool
Your video is in west of the city , in Hillside ,IL..I worked across the street on Harrison st ..at Hillside school witch is hunted ..by a little girl late at night. Who went to school there in the 1940s.
I worked four summers at Mt. Carmel as a summer groundskeeper. While your narration does not mention it, the video clearly shows how thoroughly trampled the grass is by Al Capone's grave. This is due to "gangster tourists" coming, not to pray for Mr. Capone or his family, but to gawk or take selfies (which should be called "selfishies") by his grave. Of behalf of my former colleagues, I appreciate your compliments about the care the field staff gives to the grounds at Mt. Carmel (and at all the cemeteries of the Archdiocese of Chicago). By the way, when you make that second video about Mt. Carmel, I hope you include the Bishops' Mausoleum, the "Italian Bride," the Clan Na Geal monument, and the gravesite of James Kearns (the father of Chicago's iconic flag).
I was with my wife who's parents and brother are burred there looking out the window from the road to their burial site. Along the line of sight was a very attractive and Italian looking young lady who gave me the death stare after she noticed me. I figured she must have read my gaze as an inappropriate focus on her opposed to beyond to find our destination. After we paid our respects and were on our way out we got out of the car to see what grave the now departed lady had been visiting. Of course, Al Capone. So great, she most likely thought we were garden variety gawkers.
Even though it’s frustrating that the Mobsters were glamorized but Hollywood & media, when they were shallow ruthless killers and thugs, it’s intriguing to hear their stories. Bloody and cold hearted as they were.
I have family buried in this cemetery. Next time I’m there will check out some of these plots that I’ve inevitably driven by but never noticed. I’m surprised to see Dennis Farina with such a humble headstone. Made his acting debut in the movie Thief with James Cann while he was still a Chicago Police officer. Interesting video. Thank you.
My husband and I visited a few years back to see his family. It was getting close to closing time so we left. When we got to the entrance it was locked! It started getting dark, we tried another entrance and it was locked too. We sat in our car trying to figure out what to do. Al Capones grave is right there so i was kind of freaking out. We called the police. They said they had to get the keys and 30 minutes later they showed. They said it happens a lot. Needless to say, we will visit early the next time!
My father, grandparents, and several cousins are buried in Mt. Carmel. Admittedly I don’t visit often enough, but when I do I usually take the time to walk around and take in the Chicago history.
I knew al capones grandson he owned and ran the hideout restaurant in cudaray Wisconsin,one if his dads actual hideout,my dad gave him the back bar for the restaurant back in about 1978 Sonny refinished it beautifully. Al’s house is there to with a lookout tower and a beautiful stone and wood lodge quarters complete with a few bullet holes inside by the staircase, Sonny looked just like his dad.
@@dc10fomin65 I have been going to QOH since I was three. Definitely no ghosts. Lots of relatives and family. I would never go anywhere else. Have our own mausoleum built. If you need to go, go in style.
My great grandparents are buried near capone, and he also had a speak easy next to where they lived on carpenter st . That burned down..Which my great grandpa made wine for him.
Great video! Having grown up in Glendale Heights, I knew of the cemetery but not who was buried there. My wife’s maternal grandfather rests there today.
Another excellent video, thank you! There are so many beautiful markers there, some are just stunning. I very much enjoyed this & can't wait for the next one.
I went to Cathedral High School which is adjacent to Holy Name Cathedral. The story goes Weiss and Murray were fatally wounded by this first burst. William O'Brien was hit four times and staggered into a nearby stairwell. At the initial sound of gunfire, a panicked Sam Pellar drew his .38 and fired instinctively towards the shots, unintentionally hitting Weiss as he collapsed onto the sidewalk. Pellar and Jacobs, both wounded, staggered back the way they had come. Bullets followed them the whole way and some chipped the cornerstone of the Holy Name Cathedral directly across the street. Just a piece of history for your video
this cemetery is west of Chicago in Hillside ill. not south. but nice video.Pete Genna baptized my father Tony and he gave tony a gold pocket watch. which my nephew has that watch today.
. Enjoyed the video, I knew some of the history, growing up in the Chicago area. Good to learn a little more. As others have noted the cemetery is more west-southwest of the Loop (downtown Chicago) not so much South - Wolf Road and Roosevelt (12th St.). I'd go by it all the time when I lived just south of there and would go to Hillside Shopping Center, or eventually jump on Eisenhower Expressway into the city.
When Torrio needed help with the Bootlegging business during Peohibition..He called Frankie Yale ( in New York ) and asked him to send some help...so Yale sent Capone Also Ralph Capone got the nickname of Bottles from being the Bartender at the Four Deuces Club
All quite interesting. I learned a lot about this in the late 1960s & into the 1970s. Dion O'Banion's name briefly resurfaced in 1976 when his widow died and the papers did a small article on him. Other widows of gangsters also outlived their husbands by decades. Jack McGurn's lady love Louise Rolfe outlived him by 59 years.
I've seen most of these graves; I remember reading where a policeman from the period was quoted as saying: "When judgement day comes, and all these graves open up, there'll be hell to pay in this cemetery. "
One of my neighbors was from Chicago when I was a kid in Pittsburgh. He always was really careful not to get photographed. Years later I found out he was mobster who literally walked into a murder in Chicago. Not always mobster/criminals were killers, but many did avoid having to kill to another human being. They might hurt someone to collect a debt (some debtors were scum bags and avoided paying their debts). He was a good neighbor and a nice man, so I never had issues with him when I mowed his lawn or shoveled his driveway. He did show up in a book about the Al Capone mob in Chicago and references to a gang land killing as a witness. Turns out he was probably a witness and an original FBI informant afterwards. He may have been a member of the original US Marshall's Witness Program. I learned a lot about the Chicago Mob from him (my dad was Federal Cop).
Great video! Very informative. I had never heard these stories. Thanks for taking us along and telling their stories! Hope you are having a great week! God bless!
Although Dennis farina was not a gangster!! I would have thought that his family would have given him a better grave marker! Something that suits his stature in life!!
Learned new things...yet again. Enjoyed this sooooo much. Very glad i didnt live in Chicago back when this was all going on. With my luck, i would be in an expensive car i had borrowed and had all the windows and tires shot out while just trying to run to the store real quick. I just loved this one. Crazy people.
The day of resurrection sure will be interesting considering the rival factions of the North and South sides are within shooting distance of each other. Jesus may as well get the popcorn ready to enjoy and referee this one. Anyway, based in England, UK, we do not get to sample such delights as Mount Carmel cemetery is immaculately clean and I marvel at the design of those mausoleums. I bet those Genna benches have not been sat on since the 1930s, as they and Mr Weiss sure got a lavish sendoff. Now can you imagine if Eliot Ness was buried in their midst? Many thanks for posting. Much appreciated.

Love your videos. Seeing all this is a walk through all different facets of life and history. One small note though: Vincenzo is pronounced, "Vin-chen-zō" 😅
I lived in Hillside Illinois and across the street from my apartment was the Hillside Cemetery on Harrison Street . There is a grave there of Al Capone . I say he is buried in a Unmarked grave possibility in a wall grave .
My dad’s brothers and sisters new Al Capone. My dad is the youngest of 13. My mothers grandfather new Al Capone. We are Italian but not all Italian’s know gangster’s it just seems like it
Whether we like it or not the "bad guys" are part of Chicago 's history and an important part because changes from many of their actions changed laws and other things to help in this city. The horrible fire of OLOTA school fire so many died or were injured or emotionally affected for their lives, brought about needed changes in fire protection and training and so much more that may not have occured until later and more lives lost. The Eastland Diaster brought similar changes. Our history has both good, bad, good and evil. This city in this state has some of the most fascinating history and its included in the history or our whole country. When they start pulling statues down its do stupid, we need to have things to remind us of our past good and bad.
When there I heard of a woman who visiting Mt Carmel and seeing all the gangsters was reported to have said, "When Jesus comes again there will be hell to pay here."
Just like one famous graveyard in Mexico I also watch on RUclips enemies in narco business who were killing each other are buried in the same cemetery many of them have a beautiful mousoleum
I like to know where I can find Nitti and O'Banans and Weiss grave I know about the Same G. And Capones they are buried in with my dad's family in year I like to know cause I'm going visit my family so Id like too see there thank you
If you go to Findagrave.com and type in the names, there will be a link where it shows the cemetery that says “show map”. That will give you gps coordinates to locate them. Nitti is close to the entrance to the left. O’Banion and Weiss are both towards the middle.
They for the most part died violently. Sad. Only one died of a heart attack. Having to look over your shoulder is a rough way to get by. God is merciful.
My family are in both cemeteries . My grandmother knew the Gennas mother. Said they gave a local girl and when youd ask the mother what does your son do shed say in broken English, my son a de pimp. .
My daddy was recruited or tried to to sell bootlegged alcohol out of his Fritos truck. Daddy was in college in Chicago & he sold Fritos to the bars. Babe Capone, was what daddy said they called Al’s younger brother. Not sure which one he is. He tried to get daddy to do the illegal bootlegged alcohol for them but daddy wouldn’t do it. Dad got scared seeing them allot. I think they may have been keeping after him. So daddy quit his college and got in his car and came home to Texas. lol daddy said he didn’t mind admitting he was scared.lol The time in Chicago was way before he met my mother. He didn’t marry mom till he was 26. Daddy was born in 1910 in Hutto Texas. Lol
Most of all My Family is Buried there my Grand parent's aunts uncles. Cousin's and My Sister is Buried there My Family has Been Going there For Many year's way Before I was Born My Great Grand mother is there Also that is Going 100's of years
My grandfather was a retired federal correctional officer. He knew Al Capone. He told me that once Al Capone was in USP Atlanta, he was a crybaby and a punk. The other inmates couldn't stand him and he had to be placed in protective custody.
My grandfather was from sicily and worked 50 years on the railroad, double shifts during ww2 while my dad his son fought in the war so most Itallian people. Who came over were honest hard working family people
Respects to your gramps… 🫡 has he ever mention the involvements of unions?
Only a handful of Italians were gangsters but sadly they ruined the reputations of the honest people.
My grandmother met. Al Capone when he was on the lam . He stood up and said.’’’ Hi,I’m Al Capone’’ my Grandmother said.’’ Yes, nice to meet you,I’,m the Queen of Sheba’’ it really was Al Capone….
There is one of Capone's granddaughters who expects to see him in Heaven.

Nitti hated Americans. No glory should every have come his way.

So cool
What’s the pizza place in Streamwood ?
he was a great actor, miss him a lot
Loved him on Law snd Order
wow, you were so lucky, great actor
He was first a Chicago Police Officer..
Mount Carmel is West of Chicago on Roosevelt Road in Hillside Illinois . And Right across the street is Queen of Haven
I think you mean, "Queen of Heaven."
That's Al Capone's second grave. I know where his first one is in Mt. Olivet cemetery. They moved him. So they say.
Yup on 111th
Yes they did.
I know Mt olivet very well , is there still a head stone. I doubt it
Amazing... my family is all buried there. I visit the gangsters whenever seeing them ❤
I never missed an episode of Unsolved Mysteries, with Robert Stack or Dennis Farina.
Me either! Great show!
Its a huge beautiful cemetary , and the DiRosa spinning grave is there
Mount Carmel is west of Chicago past oak park cicero Berwyn in hillside my family is buried there

I liked Dennis Farina. I really like the show “Crime Story”. Unfortunately, it wasn’t on very long.
Johnny torio, otherwise known as papa johnny got very lucky to survive that shooting. He was smart in giving it to Capone.
My barber Orlando was a 15 year old kid when he gave al capone a haircut. Big al gave him a 5 dollar tip. Huge tip in the 20s .

She Was Known As “The. Blonde Alibi” at Jack’s trial, that got him off the trial!
I've seen most of these graves; I remember reading where a policeman from the period was quoted as saying:
"When judgement day comes, and all these graves open up, there'll be hell to pay in this cemetery. "
The cemetery used to have bushes covering the name of Capone on the large stone. I see they removed it in the video.
Very interesting Thank you i am from the UK
I live near that cemetery. I knew Capone was buried there but I had no idea about the other people there.
One of my neighbors was from Chicago when I was a kid in Pittsburgh. He always was really careful not to get photographed.

South of Chicago? West of Chicago! Across the street from my HS, Proviso West!
This one so amazing like to see more of classic and retro famous people graves
We just saw John Dillinger's grave over the weekend it was super cool!
Love it keep them coming
Wow, amazing
Just found you and really like your style. Liked and subbed ❤

my grandparents from palermo are buried here . i can remember as a small boy coming here with my mom and aunts .
One day I would love to visit the old Mob always Interested me
Obanion is there too
Although Dennis farina was not a gangster!! I would have thought that his family would have given him a better grave marker! Something that suits his stature in life!!
Maybe he wanted a more subtle, simpler headstone.
Mt. Carmel Cemetery is actually West of Chicago in Hillside, IL.

With my luck, i would be in an expensive car i had borrowed and had all the windows and tires shot out while just trying to run to the store real quick. I just loved this one. Crazy people.
Thanks. This was a fun one 😀
They are trying to buy their way Into heaven
I rather fancied living in those times as a gangsters Moll.
If you weren’t involved,they wouldn’t bother you.
Thanks for this video enjoyed it as always
Thanks Cosmos! I appreciate that!
Mt. Carmel is located in Hillside, illinois. West of Chicago.
That Al Capone stone is solid cement and rebar that is 6 to 8 feet deep. People try to dig it up a few times every year.
It's granite.

Just like one famous graveyard in Mexico I also watch on RUclips enemies in narco business who were killing each other are buried in the same cemetery many of them have a beautiful mousoleum
What happened to Al Capone‘s son?
Fascinating video thank you
The cemetery is west of Chicago not south. Roosevelt Road and Wolf Road, not far from I-294.
Machine Gun Jack was one of the gunmen who took part in the Valentine's DAY massacre
The other two were members of the Purple Gang
Capone really florished in hot springs.
Great Video....Thanks ❤
My family and Aunts and Uncles are buried there. 😢
I like to know where I can find Nitti and O'Banans and Weiss grave I know about the Same G. And Capones they are buried in with my dad's family in year I like to know cause I'm going visit my family so Id like too see there thank you
If you go to Findagrave.com and type in the names, there will be a link where it shows the cemetery that says “show map”. That will give you gps coordinates to locate them. Nitti is close to the entrance to the left. O’Banion and Weiss are both towards the middle.
How could the Genna Brothers have been connected with The North Side Gang ?
They lived on the South West side of Chicago
Very cool.

Dad got scared seeing them allot. I think they may have been keeping after him. So daddy quit his college and got in his car and came home to Texas. lol daddy said he didn’t mind admitting he was scared.lol The time in Chicago was way before he met my mother. He didn’t marry mom till he was 26. Daddy was born in 1910 in Hutto Texas. Lol

I agree with you sir, yes, Al Capone was a criminal, we all know this, but defacing his tombstone, is still wrong.

My grandfather was a retired federal correctional officer. He knew Al Capone. He told me that once Al Capone was in USP Atlanta, he was a crybaby and a punk. The other inmates couldn't stand him and he had to be placed in protective custody.
That is an amazing link to history. Thanks for sharing that!
Likely your grandpa was the punk, like most C.O.s.
Please do more. Where is Sam Defasio?
I've taken this tour personally. Interesting if you know the history.
After all al capone was only human like us all
