In addition, further down in history, in "Toyotomi Hideyoshi Fu" (edited by Razan HAYASHI) edited in 1642, it is recorded that 'During the years of Bunroku a bandit named Goemon ISHIKAWA committed robbery, theft and unspeakable crimes, and after he was caught by Geni MAEDA (of Kyoto Shoshidai) under the order of Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI he was roasted to death in a cauldron along with 20 associated people including his mother.'
また、時代はやや下るものの寛永19年（1642年）に編纂された『豊臣秀吉譜』（林羅山編）は「文禄のころに石川五右衛門という盗賊が強盗、追剥、悪逆非道を働いたので秀吉の命によって（京都所司代の）前田玄以に捕らえられ、母親と同類20人とともに釜煎りにされた」と記録している。
