Ogasawara Nagatada dating history

Details

Ogasawara Nagatada ) (?-1590?), also known as Ogasawara Ujisuke ), was a Japanese samurai of the Sengoku period, who served the Imagawa, Tokugawa, and Takeda clans. Nagatada, the son of Ogasawara Ujioki, first served the Imagawa clan together with his father. However, after the death of Imagawa Yoshimoto, he became a Tokugawa retainer, and succeeded to family headship in 1569. He served at the battles of Kanegasaki and Anegawa with distinction, and later defended Takatenjin Castle against the attack led by Takeda Katsuyori. Nagatada surrendered to the Takeda clan, and became a Takeda retainer, receiving the Omosu District of Suruga Province as a fief, where he would relatively remain neutral within up until the Invasion of Kai Province during 1582. After the fall of the Takeda he sought refuge with the Hojo clan of Odawara. His precise date of death is unknown, but he is believed by some to have been captured by Ieyasu following the fall of Odawara, and executed.
