BabyJaneHudson Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Nick are you really the grandchild of the Salvatos, or ya just trying to scare us? I must admit after reading this thread and hearing about the baseball sign and deed papers that went walking out the barn door, I did get a little nervous when I saw your first post, lol. Have you yourself gone to the old barn and looked through the stuff in there? Was there ever a house on that property or just the big barn? If ya ever do go out there maybe you could take some pics of all the interesting stuff in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Uncle Carlo Emmite and his Brother Sam Big Sheriff Emmite ran the D&S social club. It was theres. My uncle Carlo lost about 150k at that place. I am fairly certain it was located where that seafood fast food resturant is right off of 45s. I do know it was not at that barn's location. Next time i am in dickenson i will make copies of his pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmitte Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Also Emmite's are cousins of the Ferittas. and the Emmitte family is the same as the Emmite family. The difference in the T's is a deep topic in and of itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plumber2 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 The Galveston Daily News reported today that Frank Fertitta Jr. passed away over the weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada. Frank Jr. was from the Beaumont branch of the Fertitta family, and 1st cousin to Galveston's Vic Fertitta and 2nd cousin to Tillman. Apparently Frank Jr. was credited in Las Vegas as being a champion for the working folks, that is he operated casino's for the workers themselves to go to, without having to mix company with all of those pesky tourists.The article also said that Frank Jr. built the Key Largo hotel in Galveston, now the Hilton which is currently owned by Tillman Fertitta.

Omerta Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 On 10/9/2008 at 11:02 AM, barronracing74 said: Me and a couple of my friends went back to the old Salvato family property last night and decided to look around. If you didnt know, the Salvatos were one of the big Mafia familys in Galveston County. Well, theres a big barn located on the property which we entered and looked around in. We found alot of very old kitchen equipment and diner booths, old records, cigarette and coke dispensers, giant baseball betting boards, old cash registers, many of the familys bank records and high school documents, a couple bottles of homemade alcohol, and a giant safe. Their used to be alot of gambling equipment but the place has been slowly gutted due to Dickinson ISD buying the land which means the barn will most likely get torn down. Im gonna try and go back and snag some pictures before its completely gutted and torn down. Just thought Id share with yall what I thought was pretty interesting. My name is Nickolas Antony Salvato. I would like to purchase what you have salvaged. Please call me at 832-374-9759 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AaronF Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) I'm Dixie Salvato's kid, my grandfather was Pete Salvato. Despite what may be said in books out there, the truth is rather mundane about the Salvatos being a mafia family. That is don't believe everything people try and say about us. I don't even live in the area anymore myself and my grandfather has been passed away for many many years. Dixie and Jimmy, Pete's children, my mom and uncle are very old. This family doesn't even speak much to each other anymore since Pete my grandfather passed away. Edited August 8, 2020 by AaronF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jrs Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Came across this thread and I'm appauld that people feel like they can just take what isn't theirs, then post it like it's a trophy won. Absolutely disgusting. Ruth and Joe happen to be my aunt and uncle, never met Joe because he died before I was born, but Ruth I've fished with, laughed with... very sweet woman and y'all steal a families memories.. doesn't matter if the house is lived in or not...its wrong.
