Japanese: 一柳氏 - ひとつやなぎうじ

A feudal lord of the early modern period. Born in Mino Province. Naomori served Toyotomi Hideyoshi and held 35,000 koku of Kuroda in Owari. After the Battle of Sekigahara, he became subordinate to Tokugawa Ieyasu, and the following year was given 50,000 koku of Ise-Kanbe. In 1636 (Kan'ei 13), he was transferred to Saijo in Iyo with 63,000 koku, but upon Naomori's death, his estates were divided among his three sons. Naoshige inherited 30,000 koku in Saijo, and under his son Naoki, his estate was divided to 25,000 koku. However, in 1665 (Kanbun 5), he was stripped of his estate for neglecting his duties. Meanwhile, Naoie inherited Harima Ono. Together with his own fiefdom, he held 28,600 koku, but after Naoie's death, it was reduced to 10,000 koku.
