与市に妻として遣わしたいとの願いが済んだ。
一 同年十二月十四日病死。両三度養子をしたことにつき御礼だけ申し上げた。
一 同十二年壬午年二月二十八日、旧臘（昨年十二月）に相果て、実子がなく、かねてより養子を願い奉るべきところ、先達てより中途で度々相願ったことにつき恐れ入って願い奉らなかった由。毎度あれこれ子細もあった由に候えば、願わなかった段はもっともなことに候。右の落命の節に願い奉り置いた段を御次手を以て達し、御聴に候。養子の義を歎き願い奉り差し控えた筋につきては御取り上げあるまじき事に候えども、九左衛門は数年役筋実体の御奉公の義は精出して相勤めたことにつき、別段御憐愍の思召しをもって名跡御立て下さるべく候。当前勤仕相成るべき相応の者を見立て相願うべく候。後家並びに親族の者へ申し渡し、親族なければ同格心易い者へ申し渡した。

英語訳
[his daughter] was sent as wife to Yoichi - the petition was approved.
- On the 14th day of the 12th month of the same year, he died of illness. Since he had adopted sons two or three times, only gratitude was expressed.
- On the 28th day of the 2nd month of Hōreki 12 (1762), Year of the Horse, he had died in the previous December. Having no biological sons, he should have petitioned for an adopted son beforehand, but since he had made such petitions repeatedly midway through the process, he refrained from making the petition out of deference. Since there were various circumstances each time, it was reasonable that he did not make the petition. The matter of his petition made at the time of his death was conveyed through proper channels and heard. Although petitions for adoption made while lamenting and holding back would normally not be accepted, since Kuzaemon had diligently performed his official duties for many years with sincere service, by special compassion his family name would be reestablished. A suitable person capable of current service should be selected and petitioned for. This was conveyed to his widow and relatives, or if there were no relatives, to those of equal rank who were close to the family.
Kuzaemon's son
Koike Yōsuke
- On the 28th day of the 4th month of Hōreki 10 (1760), Year of the Dragon, he was summoned as a foot soldier, assigned to attendant duty under the supervision of the foot soldier commander, and granted a stipend of 16 hyō with provisions for two people.
- On the 28th day of the 1st month of Hōreki 11 (1761), Year of the Snake, he died of illness.
Family Successor
Actually the second son of Shimada Kojūrō
Koike Unpei
- On the 3rd day of the 8th month of Hōreki 12 (1762), Year of the Horse, it was announced that the widow's petition for family succession should be accepted as requested.
- On the 4th day of the same month, since Koike Kuzaemon had served diligently without negligence in his official duties for many years, it was announced that his family name should be reestablished. The petition was accepted as requested, he was granted 5 koku with provisions for two people, and temporarily placed under the supervision of the chief inspector.
- On the 24th day of the same month, he absconded. His adoptive mother remained behind.
- On the 28th day, by mercy his adoptive mother was to be handed over to relatives, so she was ordered to vacate the residence immediately. [Instructions were] sent to a sake dealer named Iseya Matahachi at Myōjin-shita, and he came to take her away. The household goods belonging to the mother were handed over, while Unpei's belongings became confiscated property.
