Looking for grandfathers relatives "Nakane" Tochigi-ken

JudyHatcher51 — 15 Nov 2004 6:50:12 GMT

My grandfather was born in Tochigi-ken. His name is Tomekichi Nakane. Unfortunately we do not know a lot about him. He was born Dec. 13, 1893. He was sold to an Acobatic Troupe when he was only 3 or 4. He came to America with this troupe "Namba Troupe" in October of 1905 on the Empress of China. He stayed with the Troupe until 1918. He died in 1935 when my mother was only 12. We never knew if he had other brothers and sisters.

The only thing he had for his birth place was Tochigi-ken and mothers name Rin born in Tokyo.

Any advise concerning my search for family is greatly appreciated.

Masuzo Hagita

Gary Fittro — 7 Apr 2003 9:36:24 GMT

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
