My grandfather's US application for naturalization lists his birthplace as "Konuma Mura Kita Kanabara Hibata Niigata-ken".
I'm assuming "Hibata" is really supposed to be "Shibata" and that "Kanabara" is really supposed to be "Kanbara".
Grandfather had two sisters and I'm looking to find descendants of those sisters who may still live in Japan.
Grandfather's name = Keizaburo Koyama, birthdate Oct 7, 1897
