Inaba Masanari (稲葉正成?) (1571-October 14, 1628), sometimes known as Mino-no-kami,[1] was a Japanese samurai of the Azuchi-Momoyama period through early Edo period. He served the Oda, Toyotomi, and Tokugawa clans, and became a daimyo in the early Edo period.
Masanari was the husband of Kasuga-no-Tusbone,[2] who bore him three sons -- Masakatsu, Masasada, and Masatoshi.[3] For some reason, Masanari divorced her; and she then became wet-nurse to Tokugawa Hidetada's eldest son.[4] One of Masanari's grandsons, Inaba Masayasu (1640-1684), is primarily remembered as the enigmatic wakadoshiyori assassin of tairō Hotta Masatoshi.[5]
In the Edo period, the Inaba were identified as one of the fudai or insider daimyō clans which were hereditary vassels or allies of the Tokugawa clan,[6] in contrast with the tozama or outsider clans.

[edit] Inaba clan branches
The fudai Inaba clan originated in 16th century Mino province.[7] They claim descent from Kōno Michitaka (d. 1374),[8] who claimed descent from Emperor Kammu (736–805).[9]
A cadet branch are descended from Inaba Masanari (+1628), who fought in the armies of Nobunaga and then Hideyoshi.[8] This branch of the Inaba was created in 1588.[7] In 1619, he was granted the han of Itoigawa (25,000 koku) in Echigo province; then, in 1627, his holding was transferred to Mōka Domain (65,000 koku) in Shimotsuke province. His descendants resided successively at Odawara Domain (105,000 koku) in Sagami province from 1632 through 1685; at Takata Domain in Echigo province from 1685 through 1701; at Sakura Domain in Shimōsa province from 1701 through 1723.[8] Masanari's heirs settled at Yodo Domain (115,000 koku) in Yamashiro province from 1723 through 1868.[7]
The head of this clan line was ennobled as a "Viscount" in the Meiji period.[8]
