*''Japanese'': 力石勝之助 ''(Rikiishi Katsunosuke)''
Rikiishi Katsunosuke was a [[Tokugawa shogunate]] official who played a role in port affairs in [[Hakodate]] in the 1850s-1860s.
As a ''shirabeyaku'' under the ''[[Hakodate bugyo|Hakodate bugyô]]'' in [[1855]], Katsunosuke met with US Navy commodore [[John Rodgers]] on several occasions, representing the ''bugyô'' in refusing the Americans permission to come ashore or to take up lodgings in Hakodate.
By [[1860]], Katsunosuke had become a ''shihai kumigashira'' under the same ''bugyôsho'', and played a role in effecting the construction of a ship called the ''[[Kikko-maru|Kikkô-maru]]''.
