- In this Japanese name, the family name is Abe.
Abe no Hirafu (阿部比羅夫) was a governor of Koshi Province. He fought against the aboriginal inhabitants of Japan (called, at that time, ebisu, which basically means `barbarian'). This was in 658. Three years later, in 661, he led an expedition into Korea to help Baekje, an ally on the Korean peninsula, in the Battle of Baekgang.
Note that the early dates on this info means that everything is suspect (more than usual) and should be double and triple checked.
Abe no Hirafu might be the ancestor of one or more of the Abe clans, as well as the Ando and Akita clans.
