Kiyomitsu 6th

This record in Hawley clearly refers to Kiyomitsu of Tenshō (KIY238) in Nihonto Meikan (see the unique signature 加州泉住清光).

Hawley lists this smith to be active 1467-1510 and mixes in information for Kiyomitsu Shodai, i.e. being a son of Yukumitsu. This records fills the generation gap between Kiyomitsu Shodai and Nidai. It appears to be either Hawley's mistake or he possessed other information about some Kiyomitsu who was active between 1st and 2nd generations. I can't find any other references to such smith.
