Rough Translation Jizo inscription

[dkirkpatrick]

Good evening guys, was just wondering if anyone could give me a sense of what this inscription on this stone Jizo figure says.  I’ve had it for many years bit could never really make out what it said.  I think I can see something about Meiji but the kanji are just too faint for me to work out individually and was hoping someone could speak to roughly what it says, thank you in advance.

I am unsure about the second line. It might be an address?

Domo arigato Moriyama-san, this was most helpful!
