Tamagaki stable

玉垣部屋

According to Japanese Wikipedia, Tamagaki stable no longer exists under this name: it was dissolved in 1905 on the death of its last head, the 11th Tamagaki, and its disciples moved to Ozuruma stable. The same page describes it as a leading stable from the Edo period, alongside Ikazuchi and Isenoumi. Japanese Wikipedia also lists the yokozuna (the highest rank in sumo) Umegatani I, who received his licence in February 1884, and the ozeki (the second-highest rank) Tamagaki Gakunosuke and Hiodoshi Rikiya as belonging to the stable.
