Need Help finding information on Sato family

3170760 — 2009-09-23 00:36:44Z

How do you find out information from Japan on a family?

I know that my husband's grandfather is Arthur Sato.

His father's name is something like Masao or Masozo Sato born about 1865 and lived in NY. We were told by many family members that Masao(?) was from a royal or noble family but that's all they knew.
He came over here in the 1890's but have not found the record yet. He did own a large piece of land in NY when he settled here, but lost it somehow to the state.
A friend that is from China said that the first name can actually give you the town of origin and then the house, but I would like to find out everything I can: his ancestors, his correct spelling, if there is a crest, any siblings, etc. If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.

My friend's mom passed away when my friend was 6 months old. All her life, she wanted to contact her mother's family. Her dad had lost contact with them (he was in the Army). Later, as a married Navy wife assigned to Japan, she went to the "Town Hall" located in her mother's hometown. They had provided her with all residents of her mom's maiden name! She was finally able to meet the family who knew of her but had never met her. I'm sure that you can somehow find someone who can "bridge" this gap for you. Keep checking all kinds of sites and please do not be discouraged! Good luck to you!

Tracing Family

JWilli427 — 2003-05-21 07:20:39Z

I am looking for relatives of my mother. Her name is Imanishi, Fukiko and was a high school senior in Nara when the war had started. She later moved to Yokohama and married my dad, an American sailor.

Mother's siblings were Yoshiko, Myoko and Tadayoshi. Mother was born on March 10, 1929. Orginally from Hokkaido, their father was a violinist and artist. He had died just before the war.

Supposedly, mother's surname was orginally Fukoa but was changed to honor an uncle who had died in the war.

Thank you for reading this! Take care!

Masuzo Hagita

2003-04-07 21:47:04Z

I am looking for any information about the family ancestors and history of Masuzo and Ichi Hagita in Tokyo or Chiba. Their children are Hagima, Minoru, Mariko, Tokie, and a half-brother Kurando. I'm a friend of Tokie (Hagita) Spitz. She married Jim Spitz an American Army soldier after WWII. I have some information that Masuzo Hagita was an engineer and may have been an inventor of a pump. I know the family left Tokyo and moved to Chiba during or after WWII, and that they have a family burial plot there, but I'm not sure of the exact location. Please contact me with any information you may have regarding this family, and how I may contact any living relatives. I live in California in the United States, and my email is: it3fittro@yahoo.com. Thank you. Gary

NARUSAWA, MIKAMI

liane36 — 2002-12-14 21:48:09Z

Searching for further information about Jun NARUSAWA (b. 1890 in Nara, Japan) and his wife Ae MIKAMI (b. 1894 in Nara, Japan). Their children include Yoko NARUSAWA (b. 1921), Hisase NARUSAWA (b. 1922), Katsuko NARUSAWA (b. 1924), Akiko NARUSAWA (b. 1925), Ikuko NARUSAWA (b. 1929), Senobu NARUSAWA (b. 1934), and Situko NARUSAWA. All chuildren were born in Japan. I am told that this family was fairly well-off and had a distiguished genealogy, but as of yet I have not been able to find facts and records to support this theory. I would appreciate any help that can be provided by related genealogists or researchers experienced in this kind of research. Thank you.
