3) Based on the date of his death, it is safe to say that Hannosuke was born just before or right after the Keicho era, considering the average lifespan of a person from that time.

5) In the keizu (family tree) of Takenouchi-ryū which also lists the offshoot schools, Futagami "Bo" is listed as the founder of Futagami-ryū under Takenouchi Hisamori, having obtained a menkyo in Takenouchi-ryū and subsequently lists Futagami Hannosuke as "Bo's" son, (and an Inka-Kaiden in Takenouchi-ryū) who changed the name of the ryūgi to Sōsuishi-ryū in 1650. According to the research of the Bungo Takeda family records in the Sekiryūkan No Chōsen, Futagami "Bo", Futagami Hannosuke's father was Futagami Tokinari. Somewhere along the line, the two names were confused and the facts merged into one “enigma”.
This places Takenouchi Hisamori's death before Futagami Hannosuke was born or when Hannosuke was no more than a few years old. Even if Hisamori’s date of death is incorrect and he lived longer than the average person, it seems physically impossible for Hannosuke to have been his student.
