Uesugi Tomosada

Uesugi Tomosada (1321–1352) headed the Uesugi clan's Futabashi branch and served as shugo of Tango. After his father Shigeaki died young, he was protected by his aunt Kiyoko, mother of Ashikaga Takauji, and served the brothers. In 1337, aged seventeen, he became Tango shugo, and in 1344 head of the Naidan board.

In the Kannō Disturbance he took Tadayoshi's side and acted as his envoy to Takauji in 1351. He died in 1352; his adopted heir Akisada founded the Ogigayatsu Uesugi line.
