Kikkawa Tsuneyoshi

Kikkawa Tsuneyoshi (1132–1193), first known as Irie Tsuneyoshi, was a warrior of Suruga Province and great-great-grandson of Irie no Korekiyo. He was a gokenin of the Kamakura shogunate.

In 1183, after entering the service of Minamoto no Yoritomo, he received Kikkawa Manor in Suruga and took its place name as his family name, founding the Kikkawa clan. He died in 1193, and his son Tomokane succeeded him.
