My most famous ancestor was one of the 24 generals of Takeda Shingen.

A legendary general and warrior

I was able to visit Matsumoto Castle which was given to him by Takeda Shingen. I toured inside and was able to sit where he would have sat listening to his advisors. It gave me chills

Instead of battle plans with generals my siblings and I discussed what booze to pick up from the Lawson’s on the way to the hotel

He is unrelated to the Ezo Republic which is a claim to fame

He is just the most famous person as is some 300 years prior
