Uesugi Tomofusa

Uesugi Tomofusa (1335–c. 1391) was the second head of the Inukake Uesugi line and a Kantō kanrei. His father Uesugi Norifuji fell in 1338, so he and his brother were raised by a retainer under the guardianship of Uesugi Tomosada. Appointed shugo of Tajima, Kazusa and Shinano, he helped crush the Musashi Heikki rising in 1368.

He was made Kantō kanrei jointly with Uesugi Yoshinori to support Ashikaga Ujimitsu, and later campaigned in Shinano and against the Nitta. He then withdrew to Kyoto and died around 1391.
