Hi.
I came across a danish martialarts forum (http://www.martialarts.dk/vis_emne.asp?id=1160), where I found an interesting claim regarding a historic connection to Daito-ryu.
I have never before heard about this "connection", and hope that some of you would care to comment on it ;)
Here's my translation of the forum-post (I have not corrected any misspellings, but maybe introduced some new ones ;) )
Sincerely,
Kim Johansen.

=========================================================
Togakure ryu ninjutsu was founded by the tendai shugendo monks.
The Takeda family foundated Daito ryu aikijujutsu, og one of the takeda family members did study with those monks.
togakure ryus 32th grandmaster was also a sword-instructor for the togugawa shogunate in the beginning of the 1900th century.
The style goukko ryu koshijutsu was introduced in japan in the year 970 from china after the fall of tang-dynasty.
It was a kung-fu style also known as shaolin ken.
goukke ryu is the oldest documentet japanese style, that is mentioned in the official scrolls from year 1150.
The relatively unknown gyokushin ryu ninjutsu is a derivation of gyokku ryu koshijutsu...This style was widely spread after its publication in kisho and the takeda areas....
The 33th grandmaster takamatsu sensei was a close friend of kanu (founder of judo)
When kanu was a guest teacher at the Kodukan school a long time ago, it was gyokushin ninjutsu that he taught.
Hakkoryu jujutsu was founded by soke okuyama.
He studiet tenshin shinyo ryu with the above mentioned tendai shugendo monks, and also daito ryu aikijujutsu under sokaku takeda.
okuyama was an "uchidechi" and was asked to write the "makimono" scrolls of daito ryu aiki-jujutsu.
