I am undertaking historical research into the life and career of a Japanese pilot who was killed in 1936. For the purpose of that, it would be helpful for me to be able to contact any of his family members, or their descendants, who are living today.
The pilot died without leaving issue. His father predeceased him. But he left a mother and a younger sister. His mother is unlikely to be alive today but there is a slim chance that his sister might be. There is also the possibility of his sister having descendants living today.
Regrettably I do not (at least yet) have either the mother's or sister's names or their address (more specific than Tokyo) at the time of the pilot's death. I have the pilot's name and the address, in Kobe, which appears on his koseki. Do I have any realistic chance of being able to trace any of his relatives, or their descendants, living today? If so, can anyone suggest how best I might go about this?
With my thanks in both hope and anticipation.
