Mr. Inoue

Japanese: 井上氏 - いのうえうじ

A feudal lord of the early modern period. Born in Mikawa Province. Masanari served Tokugawa Hidetada, and in 1615 (Genwa 1) he was awarded 10,000 koku, and in 1622, this was increased to 52,500 koku in Yokosuka, Totomi, and he was promoted to Roju. He was transferred to other domains over a dozen times until the end of the Edo period, but he held Hitachi Kasama (1645-92, 1702-47) and Totomi Hamamatsu (1758-1817, 1745-68) for relatively long periods. After 1868 (Meiji 1), he was transferred to Kazusa Tsurumai. His kokudaka increased and decreased due to division and increase of land, but in 1718 (Kyoho 3) under Masamine, it was increased to 60,000 koku, which continued until the end of the Edo period.

近世大名。三河国の出身。正就は徳川秀忠につかえ，1615年(元和1)1万石を領し，22年遠江横須賀5万2500石となり，老中に昇進。その後幕末までの間に十数度の転封を繰り返すが，常陸笠間(1645‐92,1702‐47)と遠江浜松(1758‐1817,45‐68)の領有期間が比較的長かった。1868年(明治1)以降は上総鶴舞に移封。分知･加増により石高の増減があったが，1718年(享保3)正岑（まさみね）のとき，6万石に加増，以後幕末に至る。
