The Ichihashi ( Japanese 市橋 氏 , Ichihashi-shi ) were a family of the Japanese sword nobility ( Buke ) from the province of Mino , which was derived from the Seiwa-Genji . The Ichihashi belonged to the small Tozama daimyo during the Edo period with an income of 20,000 koku .

genealogy

  • Nagakatsu (長勝; 1558–1621), Shimousa no kami, initially resided in Imao in the province of Mino. In 1608 he was transferred to Yabashi ( Hōki Province ) and in 1616 to Sanjō ( Echigo Province ) with 20,000 Koku. When he died without an heir, his nephew Nagamasa, Izu no kami, succeeded him.
  • Nagamasa (長 政; 1575–1648) had an income of 20,000 koku. He settled in Hino and built a permanent house (陣 屋, Jinya) on the site of the Nishō-ji (仁 正 寺). The Nakano (中 野 城) or Hino (日 野 城) castle of the Gamō clan once stood on the site, but was abandoned in 1603.

The Ichihashi stayed there until the Meiji Restoration , after which the head of the house was given the rank of vice count.

The former residence, located on the Hino River, is now partially under water since a dam dammed the river into a lake at this point.
