Kinoshita Iesada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kinoshita Iesada (木下家定 Kinoshita Iesada?); (1543-October 4, 1608) was a samurai of the Sengoku through early Edo periods. Iesada was Toyotomi Hideyoshi's brother-in-law. At the time of the Battle of Sekigahara, Iesada was lord of Himeji han and held 25,000 koku of income.[1] However, due to his distinction in guarding his sister O-ne (Hideyoshi's wife), Tokugawa Ieyasu rewarded him, and he was enfeoffed at Ashimori han in Bicchu Province following the battle.[2]
Iesada's children included Katsutoshi, Toshifusa, Nobutoshi, Toshisada, and Hidenori. Toshifusa, his 2nd son, succeeded him.
