genealogy

Tatsuta-Han (龍田 藩), founded by Katagiri Katsumoto (片 桐 且 元), a successful colleague of Toyotomi Hideyoshis , in the province of Yamato with an income of 10,000 koku died out in 1657.

Another branch was established when Katagiri Sadataka (片 桐 貞 隆; 1560-1627), a younger brother of Katsumoto's, 1601 received the daimyo rank. In 1615 he built a permanent house (陣 屋, Jinya) on the remains of the medieval Koizumi Castle in Yamato. With an income of 12,000 koku, the katagiri belonged to the small daimyo. This branch resided there until the Meiji Restoration in 1868. After that, the head held the title Vice Count.

The second boss of the house, Katagiri Sadmasa (片 桐 貞 昌, 1605–1672), I dealt with the tea ceremony and founded my own direction, which is called after his nickname Sekishū Sekishū School (石 州 流). It is still run by the Katagiri today.
