Miura Yasumura

Miura Yasumura (1184?–1247) was head of the Miura clan and the second son of Yoshimura. In the Jōkyū Disturbance of 1221 he distinguished himself in the shogunate army; Hōjō Yasutoki, his sponsor, gave him the character 'yasu' and a daughter in marriage.

Made a councillor in 1238, he grew close to shōgun Kujō Yoritsune and aroused the suspicion of Regent Hōjō Tokiyori. In 1247, driven into revolt by Adachi Kagemori's plot, he was defeated in the Hōji Conflict and killed himself at the Hokkedō hall.
