戸田忠太夫・藤田寅之助・会沢垣蔵が死亡。その他にも多くの死者がいる。

一、堀田の長屋が多く損壊。
下男が九人死亡。名倉弥治兵衛がただちに駆けつけ怪我人を治療し、翌朝に至り、死人一人を掘り出したところ、弥治兵衛が見て「これは生き返りそうだ」と言い、手当てを施したところ息を吹き返し、回復したという。
一、西丸下御厩・諏訪部八十郎
二階建ての新築が完成したため、多くの客が来ており、酌取り女四、五人も来て、酒宴の最中であった。諏訪部は建物が大きく崩れて二階から落ち、即死。客の中にも怪我人があったとのこと。その下役の某は夫婦ともに即死。八丁堀同心の某氏もその夜たまたまその席に居合わせ、即死した。

一、堀 丹波守
《割書：夫人は臨産（出産間近）であり、分娩の際に両者ともに圧死。翌日、両者を辛うじて葬り、その菩提寺は上野凌雲寺である。》
奥方は即死。奥方は「襁褓（きょうほう）」の人（産褥期・出産間近の身）であり、地震が始まって鴨居が落ちそうになった時、鴨居を両手で支え、女中たちを一人残らず逃がした。自分も後から逃げ出そうとした時に家が倒壊し、即死した。
英語訳
Item: Suifu (Mito Domain) — Nearly nine-tenths of the domain retainers' residences collapsed, with many deaths.
Toda Chūdayū, Fujita Toranosuke, and Aizawa Kakuzō perished. Many other deaths were also reported.
It is said that over three hundred men of samurai rank and above died. The domain elder (karō), the lord's personal attendant (sobayōnin), Fujita (the Confucian official), and Aizawa were all pillars of the lord's administration — their loss is truly to be mourned.
Item: Many of Hotta's tenement buildings were heavily damaged.
Nine male servants died. Nagura Yajibei rushed immediately to the scene and treated the injured. The following morning, when a person was dug out from the rubble who appeared to be dead, Yajibei examined him and said, "This one looks like he could yet live," and treated him, whereupon the man revived and recovered.
Item: Nishi-no-Maru Shita御厩 (stables) — Suwabe Hachijūrō
A new two-story building had just been completed, and many guests had gathered to celebrate. Four or five serving women had also come, and a banquet was in full swing. The building collapsed catastrophically, sending Suwabe falling from the second floor to his death. Several guests were also reported injured. A subordinate official and his wife both died instantly. A Hatchōbori doshin (police constable) who happened to be present at the gathering that night also died on the spot.
Item: Hori, Lord of Mino Province
He was caught in the earthquake while traveling. As his party passed beneath the tenement buildings of Sasaki, Lord of Ōmi Province, the kago bearers (rikisha) were killed instantly.
Item: Matsumoto Jūrobei — His son died instantly.
(Inner Secretariat)
Item: Tatsuta Rokusuke — His entire household, including Rokusuke himself, died instantly. He was the son of Tatsuda Iwatarō.
(Accounts Office)
Item: Murai Gorō — Died while lodging in the Yoshiwara pleasure district. [A Chinese-style memorial inscription reads:] "An upright and composed samurai breathed his last in this place. His name shall not fade for a thousand years."
(Onari-dōri)
Item: Hori, Lord of Tamba Province
[Marginal note: His wife was near childbirth; both mother and newborn were crushed to death in the delivery. The following day, both were barely given burial; their memorial temple is Ryōunji in Ueno.]
His wife died instantly. As she was a woman in the late stages of pregnancy (about to give birth), when the earthquake began and the door lintel (kamoi) was about to fall, she held the lintel up with both hands and managed to get all the serving women out to safety without exception. Just as she herself was about to escape afterward, the house collapsed and she died instantly.
