Inaba Masamichi

Inaba Masamichi (稲葉 正則, December 22, 1640 – November 22, 1716) was a daimyō of Odawara Domain in Sagami Province (modern-day Kanagawa Prefecture) in early-Edo period Japan, until 1686 when he was transferred to Takada Domain in Echigo Province.

Due to the influence of the Tairō Sakai Tadakiyo, he rose rapidly through the hierarchy of the Tokugawa shogunate.

[3] However, in 1685, Masamichi was ordered to resign his position as Kyoto Shoshidai and to transfer from Odawara to Takada Domain in Echigo Province (103,000 koku).

On January 11, 1701, Masamichi became a Rōjū under shōgun Tokugawa Tsunayoshi, and in June of that year was transferred to Sakura Domain in Shimōsa Province (103,000 koku).

On August 7, 1707, he retired from public life, turning his domain over to his son Inaba Masatomo.
