Togashi no Iekuni

Togashi no Iekuni was a Heian-period warrior of Kaga province, the son of Saitō no Sōsuke of a warrior house that claimed descent from the general Fujiwara no Toshihito.

Genealogies of the Togashi record that Iekuni held Togashi village in Kaga and was the first of his line to take the place name as his surname, calling himself Togashi Iekuni. He is therefore counted as the clan's founder and first head, and his son Nobuie succeeded him.
