Related Work

Volumes 26–30 of the appendix to the Kyūki Zatsuroku (旧記雑録) contain genealogies of the Shimazu branch houses, abridged from the branch genealogies by the compiler Ijichi Suemichi (伊地知季通). The arrangement of the appendix differs from that of the branch genealogies.

Notes for Researchers

Compare the appendix of the Kyūki Zatsuroku with the branch genealogies, as their order and contents differ. Compare each line with other genealogies, temple records and family documents.
