There is a comprehensive account of Kinshi's life at Kabuki21 under the heading 'Sawamura Kunitarō II'. From 1798-1814 he acted under the name of Izumikawa Kamekichi with a troupe of actors. "Later on, he becomes disciple of Ogino Itarô, who gives him the name of Ogino Kamekichi. His next stage names are Ogino Kinshi and Ogino Yaegiri III, a prestigious name unheld since 6th lunar month of 1763. He takes back the name of Ogino Kinshi, using a different writing..." 錦紫 the early form and 錦子 as the new form.
