Inari-san of Genji store "Tachibana Inari Shrine"
There is a monument to "History Genji" on the sidewalk of Ningyocho-dori. It was set up in commemoration of "1967". As you know, the name "Genji-ten" is derived from the town mansion worshiped by Genya Okamoto, a palace doctor of the Shogunate. Rather, it would be more famous as a model for the Genji store in Kabuki's "Yomojo Fukina Yokokushi", known as "Otomi Yosaburo" and "Kirire Yozo". When "ji" was replaced with "ji", it became "genji" and the word "Genji" was used to make the stage of the play. That's right. (Shochiku, Kabukijin)
"Genya Okamoto (Tensho 15-1587-1645) studied a doctor with Gensaku Manase (2nd Dosan), became the head of the institute, instructed his students, and married Gensaku's daughter. . He served Ieyasu, Hidetada, and Ie Kozo University, went to Edo every two years, and worshiped the Emperor while in Tokyo. " It is famous that he healed the house light with smallpox, but it is also known that he was able to work in with the Kasuga Bureau over treatment methods. (“The Story of Kokata,” Engyo Mitamura)
＊Gensaku Manase's Makunase family has been the head of the medicine for generations, and is the origin of the name "Dosanbori".
Tachibana Inari Shrine is a Yashiki deity enshrined in this Genya Okamoto mansion.
According to the book of origin, "What used to be in Gotenyama was later moved to Edo Castle, and then moved to the area with a palace doctor Genya Okamoto, who was given mansion. Tachibana is said to have been named after the original family name of the Okamoto family. "
"Yashikigami" originally worshiped the souls of ancestors in a nearby mountain forest, but during the Meiwa and Yasunaga years (1764-1781), Inari was enshrined in the mansion of Okitsugu Tanuma, who had an unusual success from small surnames to old people, so it seems that Inari boom spread to the mansion of daimyo and Hagimoto, and it seems that the town spreads to the town.
This is a cut-out picture of the Owari-ya version of 1853. You can see "Gen Yatana" and "Tachibana Inari" from the left in the center.
