Nanbu Tokinaga

Nanbu Tokinaga was a warrior of the Kamakura–Southern Court period, legitimate son and heir of Nanbu Masayuki. As clan head he fought a long land lawsuit against his cousin Takeyuki and half-brother Sukeyuki, who used forged documents and the backing of the Hōjō's Nagasaki vassals.

In 1333 he joined Emperor Go-Daigo with his brothers, fighting under Nitta Yoshisada in the storming of Kamakura; the Kenmu regime appointed him Kai no Kami. When Ashikaga Takauji rebelled he served the Southern Court with Yoshisada, and after the 1336 defeat at Minatogawa he vanished from the records.
