[1] At the end of Boshin War, the territory of Sendai Domain was reduced from 620,000 koku to 280,000 koku on 5 February 1869 (24 December Meiji 2).
In the following territorial reorganization, the Nanbu clan, which previously ruled Morioka Domain to the north, was relocated to the newly created Iwaki Province.
Its new territory, Shiraishi Domain (Japanese: 白石藩), consisted of nine villages in the districts of Katta, Shibata, Igu and Watari.
