Hello. Sorry for writing in English. I have been helping my niece with her Japanese family history.
I have tried to find information from their municipalities website, with no success as I tried to translate the pages.

Hello Glauco, welcome to this community group. We haven't officially launched this group yet, but we want to help you. I have asked a community member to join this group to help you.

Glauco, I think Tomio Sawada specifically asked me to come and help you. I live in Sacramento, California and I have been helping Japanese-Americans in Northern California request their koseki for the last 5-6 years. My wife is actually from Kyoto. You are correct in trying to find the municipality website, but you need more specific information than "Kyoto" or "Osaka". Can you identify the ancestral village that her ancestors came from? That is the key. If you would like to contact me directly, my email is marty_wolf@stanfordalumni.org.

I appreciate the quick response. My niece is a 16-year-old 4th Generation Japanese-Brazilian who is really excited about family history. We were able to locate the specific villages in those prefectures. She will be contacting you shortly. Thank you so much!!!
