According to Japanese Wikipedia, Onogawa stable was dissolved in 1965, and its wrestlers, led by Uminoyama, moved to Dewanoumi stable, after which the Onogawa stable name was retired. According to Japanese Wikipedia, the stable belonged to the Dewanoumi ichimon from 1947, and Kinkazan Daigoro (Takasaki, later Onogawa), whose highest rank was maegashira 2 West, is given as a head of the stable. No yokozuna or ozeki is listed for the stable in Japanese Wikipedia; the highest rank given there for its wrestlers is sekiwake (Shinobuyama and Uminoyama).
