I believe in this case, 卯辰 may not be a year or time but rather stands for 卯辰山 Mount Utatsu
Mountain in Kanazawa, Japan
(Mount Utatsu is a mountain in Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. It is also known by a number of other names, including Mount Mukai, Mount Mukō, Mount Garyū, and Mount Kasuga)
where there are a lot of temples, in which there may be one or two more Guan Yin 觀音.
I did a quick search, there was indeed record of a 卯辰山觀音院 and a 卯辰觀音堂
You have to log in via Facebook to see them though:

However, since I am not an expert in Japanese culture or geography, I can be wrong. Super
