現住所である安原町の
由来は
「安本家の原っぱ」
だったから。
そう伝えられるほど古くからこの地に根ざしてきた（一説によると平安時代から続くと言われています）安本家は現当主・安本岳史で47代目を数え、絶やすことなく家業に邁進してきました。
The name of their present residence “Yasuhara-cho” originates in the expression “the field of the Yasumoto family”, reflecting the extent to which the Yasumoto family had laid down roots in this area from a long time ago (one theory states that their lineage dates from the Heian Period). The fact that the present family head, Takeshi Yasumoto represents the 47th generation of the family is testimony to their persistence in the family business.
