Tsugaru Tsugumichi (津軽 承叙, September 24, 1840 – December 7, 1903) was the fourth and final daimyō of Kuroishi Domain in northern Mutsu Province, Honshū, Japan (modern-day Aomori Prefecture).
Tsugumichi became daimyō during the turbulent Bakumatsu period, during which time the Tsugaru clan[1] first sided with the pro-imperial forces of Satchō Alliance, and attacked nearby Shōnai Domain.
[2][3] However, the Tsugaru soon switched course, and briefly joined the Ōuetsu Reppan Dōmei.
[2] After the Meiji Restoration, with the abolition of the han system, Tsugumichi was appointed Imperial Governor of Kuroishi from 1869 to 1871, at which time the territory was absorbed into the new Aomori Prefecture.
He relocated to Tokyo, and with the establishment of the kazoku peerage system in 1882, he was awarded with the title of shishaku (viscount).
