Minamoto no Morofusa

Minamoto no Morofusa (1008–1077) was a Heian noble, ancestor of the Nakanoin line of the Murakami Genji. The eldest son of Imperial Prince Tomohira, he received the Minamoto surname in 1020 and became a foster son of Regent Fujiwara no Yorimichi. In 1024 he married Sonshi, a daughter of Fujiwara no Michinaga, whose only non-imperial son-in-law he was.

Named inner minister in 1065, he was the first Minamoto minister in seventy years, then right minister in 1069. He died in 1077 after taking the tonsure.
