*''Japanese'': [[渡辺]] 善右衛門 ''(Watanabe Zen'emon)''
Watanabe Zen'emon was a retainer to the [[Inaba clan|Inaba family]] of [[Yodo han|Yodo domain]], and the author of the ''[[Nyurai Ryukyu ki|Nyûrai Ryûkyû ki]]'', an account of what he witnessed and heard about the [[1748]] [[Ryukyuan embassy to Edo]].
Watanabe was born in [[1697]] in the Inaba [[daimyo yashiki|mansion]] in [[Edo]], and was raised in the castle-town of [[Sakura]], where the Inaba were (briefly, at that time) lords of [[Sakura han|Sakura domain]]. As an adult, Watanabe inherited his own sub-fief or [[stipend]] of 150 ''[[koku]]''. In [[1723]], the Inaba were transferred from Sakura to Yodo domain, based at [[Fushimi]], and thus Watanabe moved as well. He died there in [[1762]].
