Caroline - I can help this person request koseki/joseki (family register records) from Japanese municipal offices. Due to Japanese privacy laws, he has to make the request himself. The personal family register records are the start of any Japanese family history research. Email me at marty_wolf@stanfordalumni.org for more info. I am able to read and speak Japanese and have been helping out numerous Japanese-Americans here in Sacramento, California. Thanks.
