There had been a false belief that Nagamitsu and Emura was the same person. See [1] for details.
More information about Nagamitsu can be found in Ichihara Nagamitsu article of Japanese Sword Index.

The record is correct. However, Nagamitsu was NOT
the head of Okayama prison. That was Emura. The two
smiths are not related. This is an error found in many of
the older listings.
See my webpages on Emura, Nagamitsu and why the
confusionn arose.
