August 21, 1893 - Bugs Moran
Among the major figures of Prohibition-era Chicago, Moran built his reputation as the primary rival to Al Capone's South Side organization, commanding the North Side gang through a period of sustained and often spectacular violence. His near-miss survival of the 1929 Saint Valentine's Day Massacre — in which seven of his associates were killed — effectively ended his power in the city, and his criminal career afterward traced a long, diminishing arc into obscurity and petty crime.
From Wikipedia
George Clarence "Bugs" Moran (; born Adelard Leo Cunin; August 21, 1893 – February 25, 1957) was an American Chicago Prohibition-era gangster. He was incarcerated three times before his 21st birthday. Six to seven members of his gang were gunned down and killed in a warehouse in the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre of February 14, 1929, supposedly on the orders of his rival Al Capone.
