Tokugawa-Owari family

The nihongo|Tokugawa family of Owari|徳川尾張家|Tokugawa Owarika is a branch of the Tokugawa clan, a Japanese clan that descended from Tokugawa Yoshinao, the ninth son of Tokugawa Ieyasu. It is also the main "Gosanke" ("three honorable houses of the Tokugawa"). [http://housa.city.nagoya.jp/english/index.html Hosa Library, City of Nagoya] . Hosa Library. Accessed July 4, 2007.] For over 250 years, the Owari family ruled Owari Domain, the area surrounding present day Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, using Nagoya Castle as its main base.
