    In the Edo period, finding a lost child was extremely difficult, and it was not uncommon for parents and children to be separated for the rest of their lives. To address this, a public message board was needed to gather information. In 1857, the residents of Nihonbashi Nishigashi-cho pooled their funds to establish this stone marker. When a child went missing, people would post slips of paper on this stone, describing the child’s physical characteristics to exchange information with those who might have found them.
