Nasu no Suketaka

Nasu no Suketaka was a late Heian-period warrior and, in clan tradition, the first head of the Nasu of Shimotsuke, son of Sudō Munesuke. When Minamoto no Yoritomo rose against the Taira in 1180, only two of his sons, Tametaka and Yoichi, joined the Minamoto; the other nine sided with the Taira.

His sons founded the Nasu branch houses, among them Fukuhara and Senbon. After Yoichi, his fifth son Sukeyuki succeeded as head of the clan.
