Date Tameie
Date Tameie was the fourth son of Date Tomomune, founder of the Date clan. The Azuma Kagami names him among the sons who fought beside their father at the Battle of Ishinazaka in Minamoto no Yoritomo's 1189 Ōshū campaign, for which the family was rewarded with Date district in Mutsu.
He is regarded as ancestor of the Suruga Date line. The Date Seshin Kafu relates that his son Date Tameshige settled in Hienuki district and took the place name, beginning the Hienuki clan.
