IKKAN SENSEI's SHAKUHACHI HIKKI
1816 - "Master Ikkan's Notes on the Shakuhachi" by Miyaji Ikkan,
宮地一関, - lived c. 1750-1820?
Miyaji Ikkan became a significant figure in the Ichigetsu-ji circles of shakuhachi playing in Edo following upon Kurosawa Kinko's death in 1771.
A complete photographic reproduction of Ikkan Sensei's important literary work Shakuhachi hikki can be studied and appreciated in full
at The National Diet Library's website.
In Shakuhachi hikki we also find a complete, annotated Fuke temple registry, a short text about Hottō Kokushi and the four Buddhist laymen,
as well as a list of the "old 16 branches" (or, factions) of the Fuke Sect. You may go to frames 13 through 20 of the digitalized book to study the pages in question yourself:
National Diet Library, Japan: Shakuhachi hikki
Miyaji Ikkan presents his list of Fuke Temples in relation to their respective branch sects in a fashion very much like Yamamoto Morihide's, in Kyotaku denki kokujikai:
金先派 - Kinsen-ha: 18 temples
活惣派 - Kassō-ha: 14 temples
梅土派 - Umeji-ha: 9 temples
小菊派 - Kogiku-ha: 10 temples
寄竹派 - Yoritake-ha (Kichiku-ha!): 5 temples
根笹派 - Nezasa-ha: 2 temples
不智派 - Fuchi-ha: 9 temples
Total: 67 temples
Then follows a short text in which Miyaji Ikkan explains how come there came to be [legendarily!] 16 branches of the Fuke Sect:
一書ニ云
後深草院建長六年八月二日法燈国師同船ニテ、
四居士来朝ス。
宝伏居士宋怒居士ハ鎮州ノ人。
国佐居士ハ齋州ノ人。
理正居士ハ幽州ノ人。
又云四居士来朝シテ、興国寺ノ廣化庵ニ住テ、我宗ヲ(？)ム。
四居士各四弟子アリ。
都合十六弟子。
正法ヲ附与ス。
仍テ十六派ニ分ル。
今七派相續九派断絶。
"It says in a book, that during the reign of Emperor Go-Fukakusa, on the 2nd day of the 8th month in the 6th year of the Kenchō Period [1254],
onboard the same ship as Hottō Kokushi there were four Buddhist laymen who came to this country.
The Buddhist laymen Hōfu and Sōjo were men from the Chin Province.
Buddhist layman Kokusa was a man from the Sai Province.
Buddhist layman Risei was a man from the Yū Province.
It also says [in the book] that when the four Buddhist laymen had come to this country they settled to live in the Kōke Hermitage of the Kōkoku Temple,
and then they founded [?] our sect.
The four Buddhist laymen each had four disciples. A total of 16 disciples.
They established the True Teaching [of my/our sect].
Therefore they divided [and organized the sect] into 16 branch sects.
Seven factions have been continued, nine factions have become extinct."

Trsl. by Torsten Olafsson, 2013.
An almost identical list of 16 branch sects is presented in Koji Ruien Vol. 9, p. 1134:
The headline reads Fuke shūmon okitegaki, 普化宗門掟書
- "Legal Document(s) of the Fuke Sect" [?]
No date is given. I have not yet located a reliable version of the original document.
