Well she certainly lived a long long time and kept her memories late into her 90s. She remembered the outbreak of WWI as a girl in the Austro-Hungarian empire, and how they used to have a picture of the Kaiser in every room in her school. Her native language was Italian, but they did have to learn some German. Fiume was a weird independent state for a while between the wars, and she came to California in the 1930s. She was a seamstress and made nun's habits in San Francisco. On the whole though, she was not a particularly nice woman. She had terrible taste in men, and was verbally and emotionally abusive to just about everyone, her daughter especially.

The gun-running story is the only thing I know about Luigi. On my father's mother's side, there might have been some St. Louis-area Jewish mobsters, but we don't really know anything concretely.
