Nagysan,
I had wondered about the attribution of the third signature to Kitani Chigusa. A little further research has shown this signature to be that of a little known woman artist Sumiyoshi Chiaki 住吉千秋(すみよしちあき) who was a student of Kitani's.
I thank you for taking the time to add clarifications, e.g. dropping of the sonant marks which I had wondered about. With best regards.
