Onodera Yoshimichi

Onodera Yoshimichi (小野寺義道^?) (1566-1645) was the son of Onodera Terumichi (minor Daimyo of the Dewa province).

Yoshimichi was the holder of the Omori Castle, and a longtime rival of the clan of Megumi. Yoshimichi himself later on became a Daimyo of the Dewa. During the year of 1594, Mogami Yoshikaira, an old enemy of Yoshimichi, is said to have deceived him into punishing one of his chief retainers. This deception greatly affected the unity between the retainers.

Later on, Otani Yoshitsugu was to conduct land surveys in Yoshimichi's domain, but he was ultimately backed off. Due to this fact, Yoshimichi's castle of Omori was besieged during the year of 1599. Yoshimichi went on to support Uesugi Kagekatsu during the Sekigahara Campaign, but was afterwards deprived of his lands and exiled to the Chūgoku region during the year of 1601.
