Horio Tadaharu

Horio Tadaharu (堀尾 忠晴; 1596 – 26 October 1633) was a tozama daimyō in Japan during the Edo period.

In 1604, 9 year old Tadaharu succeeded to the leadership of his house on the early death of his father Tadauji; his grandfather acted as regent because of his youth.

In 1611, Yoshiharu died, and Tadaharu took up personal leadership.

The main line of the Horio clan thus came to an end; however, a branch of the family became retainers of the Matsudaira clan over the Matsue Domain.

There is a wooden statue of Tadaharu at Enjō-ji Temple [1] in Matsue.
