Fujiwara no Nakamasa

Fujiwara no Nakamasa was an early to mid-Heian noble, the seventh son of Councillor Fujiwara no Yamakage of the Northern Fujiwara house. He served under Emperor Daigo (r. 897–930) and Emperor Suzaku in guards and censorial posts, ending at junior fourth rank upper, and also governed Settsu Province as a zuryō.

Though never a minister, his daughter married the regent Fujiwara no Kaneie, making him maternal grandfather of Fujiwara no Michinaga and Higashi-Sanjōin, mother of Emperor Ichijō.
