5. Aoki family immigrated to Hawaii


The people of the Okikamuro who went to Hawaii more than 100 years ago probably went to the fishing grounds with the same intentions as the people of the “Bakangumi” (Shimonoseki group) and the “Chosengumi” (Korean group).

It is believed that in 1920, the people of the Okikamuro in Hawaii founded the "Okikamuro village club" when they had a little extra time to live.


Fifteen years later, in 1935, the "50th Anniversary of Hawaiian Immigration" was celebrated, and all Nikkei from all over Hawaii held a support party.The Okikamuro club also participates in the celebration event.

At that time, the leader of the Okikamuro club was Mr. Aoki. I will introduce the officers at that time from the article at that time.
