From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Konoe Hisatsugu[1] (近衛 尚嗣? 1622-1653), son of regent Nobuhiro, was a kugyō or Japanese court noble of the Edo period (1603–1868). He held a regent position kampaku from 1651 to 1653.
His mother was not recorded. His sister was the consort of Tokugawa Mitsukuni, the daimyo of Mito Domain. As a son of Nobuhiro, he was a grandson of Emperor Go-Yozei. His consort was Princess Shoshi (昭子内親王), known as Onna-nino-miya by the contemporary, the third daughter of Emperor Go-Mizunoo, thus a cousin of Hisatsugu. With her he had a son Motohiro and a daughter who was the consort of Fushimi-no-miya Prince Sadayuki(伏見宮貞致親王).
