Matsudaira Nobunori

Matsudaira Nobunori

Viscount Matsudaira Nobunori (松平 喜徳, 1855–1891) was a Japanese samurai of the late Edo period who served as daimyō of Aizu Domain from 1868–69. Born the son of Tokugawa Nariaki of Mito, he was adopted by Matsudaira Katamori as successor. After a year of serving as daimyō, he resigned, allowing Katamori's birth son Keizaburō (Kataharu) to assume headship. Nobunori then became the head of the Matsudaira family of Matsukawa, and spent time studying abroad, in France.
