SteveM Posted August 25, 2024 Report Posted August 25, 2024 And others 使用苗字 飛内、竹屋、広橋、森、石河、宮重、中西、望月、森岡 Always important to remember many families used the same crest. There isn't a one-to-one relation to a crest to any one family, excepting the imperial family. 3 1 Quote
AdamH Posted August 29, 2024 Report Posted August 29, 2024 I believe it originated from the single crane crest from the Hino family (Kamakura). The specific mon you have was used by these 4 families. Ishiko, Ishimaki, Nakanishi & Miyashige 1 1 Quote
