Sagae Tokishige

Sagae Tokishige, also recorded as Ōe no Tokishige (died 1373), was the seventh head of the Sagae Ōe clan in Dewa Province. Succeeding his father Motomasa after he fell fighting Shiba Kaneyori in 1359, he posted his sons and kinsmen in new forts across Sagae manor.

At the battle of Urushigawa in 1368 his heir Shigenobu led the clan against Shiba Kaneyori and was crushingly defeated, with sixty-one clansmen killing themselves. Tokishige kept the main manor but lost Kita-Sagae, and died in 1373, bidding his surviving fourth son Tokiuji to make peace with the Northern Court.
