-
In this Japanese name, the family name is "Tsuda".
Tsuda Nobusumi (津田 信澄 , 1555 - June 24, 1583) was a Japanese Ninja and member of the main Oda clan of Owari Province during the Sengoku (16th century) and Azuchi-Momoyama periods. Nobusumi was the son of Oda Nobuyuki, thus making the famed Oda Nobunaga his uncle. Even though the Oda clan had fallen after the treacherous acts of Akechi Mitsuhide when he burned Honnō-ji during the Incident at Honnō-ji, Nobusumi was allowed to marry the daughter of Mitsuhide. This had been ordered by Nobuyuki before his death. Nobusumi himself would be killed at Osaka the following year in 1583 by Oda Nobutaka, due to Nobtutaka's suspicion of him with the marriage to Mitsuhide's daughter, and the death his father Nobuyuki by the hands of Nobunaga.
