Mito
The Serizawa family were Gôshi of Seizawa village in Hitachi province. Serizawa Mitsumoto was adopted into the Shimomura family and his name was changed to Shimomura Tsuguji. Tsuguji was jailed for involvement in the Tamatsukurigumi which was a Sonnô Jôi group in Mito han, however he was released in 1862 and then he changed his name to Serizawa Kamo.
Mibu Rôshigumi
Serizawa joined the Rôshigumi in Edo in 1864 and moved to Kyoto. He and Kondô Isami protested against Kiyokawa Hachirô and decided to stay in Kyoto. The 24 Ronin who stayed in Kyoto called themselves the Mibu Rôshigumi and they were employed by Aizu han. However, Serizawa's violent acts became a big problem in Kyoto, so Aizu han secretly ordered Kondo to assassinate Serizawa. In 1863, Hijikata Toshizô, Okita Sôji, Harada Sanosuke, and Yamanami Keisuke stormed into Yagi Gennojô's house and killed Serizawa and Hirayama Gorô. (There are alternative theories regarding the people involved in Serizawa's assassination.) Their graves are in Mibu temple Kyoto.
