↑ ^1.0 ^1.1 ^1.2 As Kamato Hongo (whose age is disputed) was reported to be the oldest living person in Kagoshima Prefecture following the death of Suekiku Miyanaga, it is unknown if Ikuhisa Higashi, Se Honu, and Yoshi Nagayama really have been the oldest living person in the prefecture. Data Collection Site lists them as potential titleholders.
↑ According to her koseki, she was born on 16 September 1887 (but her family members claimed she was born on 8 April 1887). As such, she was reported to be the oldest living person in Kagoshima Prefecture following the death of Suekiku Miyanaga. However, her age has later been called into question. To reflect the dispute about her age, Data Collection Site lists her birth year as "1890～1893?".
