Nakamura no Suetaka

Nakamura no Suetaka was a late-Heian courtier, the son of Nakamura no Sanemune, who took the Nakamura clan name in 1113. He held junior fourth rank and served as chamberlain and governor of Shimotsuke, first living at Yamao in Hitachi's Isa manor.

As governor of Shimotsuke he settled in Haga District and, tradition says, renamed the place Nakamura after his own clan. After his term he retired to Shimodate and was known as the Shimodate chamberlain.
