Matsudaira Tsunamasa

Matsudaira Tsunamasa (松平 綱昌?, June 4, 1661 –March 12, 1699) was a Japanese daimyo of the early Edo period who ruled the Fukui Domain. Born in Edo, the eldest son of Matsudaira Masakatsu (illegitimate son of the 4th generation lord, Mitsumichi). After the succession dispute with his uncle Masachika, the latter resigned, and allowed Tsunamasa to become lord of Fukui. However, Tsunamasa soon proved himself to be a cruel lord prone to violent rampages, and the shogunate confiscated the Fukui domain. Because of the domain's status and its history dating back to Yūki Hideyasu, the shogunate restored the previous lord Masachika to the family headship, and granted him a severely reduced income of 250,000 koku.

Tsunamasa died in 1699, at 38 years of age.
