    Kirikiri Zenbei (Maekawa Zenbei) successive graves

    It is said that the ancestors of Kirikiri Zenbei (Maekawa Zenbei) were from Sagami Province (present-day Kanagawa Prefecture), took the surname Shimizu, and served the Odawara Hojo clan. In the 18th year of Tensho, when Toyotomi Hideyoshi attacked Odawara and the castle fell, Maekawa's ancestors fled to Kesenura and eventually settled in Kirikiri. He then adopted the surname Maekawa, after his hometown of Maekawa Village in Sagami.
