Ikeda

The Ikeda were a Japanese warrior family with branches in Settsu and Mino, claiming descent from Minamoto no Yorimitsu. A descendant of Yorimitsu was the first to take the Ikeda name.

Ikeda Tsuneoki fought for Oda Nobunaga and died at Nagakute in 1584. His son Terumasa received Yoshida in Mikawa in 1590, married Tokugawa Ieyasu's daughter in 1594, and gained Himeji for his service at Sekigahara in 1600. Ikeda branches later ruled the domains of Okayama and Tottori during the Edo period.
