Uesugi Yorinari

Uesugi Yorinari (died 1346) was a warrior of the Northern and Southern Courts era, a grandson of Uesugi Shigefusa, the clan's founder. He later served as shugodai of Sagami and Tango, and fought across the country in the following of his nephew Ashikaga Takauji.

In 1338 he helped drive Kitabatake Akiie's Southern Court army back from Nara. Through his many sons his bloodline passed into the Ōgigayatsu Uesugi, the Sanuki Nagao and the Hagiwara houses.
