Tō no Ujimura

Tō no Ujimura was the fourth head of the Tō clan of Gujō in Mino Province, a warrior house descended from the Chiba clan. His father Taneyuki had been enfeoffed with Yamada Manor in Gujō for his service in the Jōkyū War of 1221.

Early in the fourteenth century Ujimura moved the clan's seat from Achiba Castle, and the Yamato village history records that Shinowaki Castle was completed under him, becoming their residence. He died in 1377.
