Biography

Matsudaira Sukekuni was born as Sano Sukekuni, the second son of the hatamoto Sanō Katsuyori. In 1714, he entered into the administration of the Tokugawa shogunate as a minor hatamoto, and received Lower 5th Court Rank. In 1718, he received the courtesy title of Bungō-no-kami.

On the death of his brother-in-law, Matsudaira Suketoshi, the daimyō of Hamamatsu Domain in Tōtōmi Province in 1773, Sukekuni was adopted into the Honjō branch of the Matsudaira clan and inherited the 70,000 koku domain. In 1729, he was transferred to Yoshida Domain in Mikawa Province. In 1741, he became a Sōshaban (Master of Ceremonies) in the administration of Edo Castle. In 1748, his Court Rank was raised to Lower 4th. In 1749, he was appointed Kyoto Shoshidai, at which time he exchanged Yoshida Domain back for Hamamatsu Domain. The same year, his courtesy title was upgraded to Chamberlain. He died in 1752.

Sukekuni was married to a daughter of Arima Yorimoto, the daimyō of Kurume Domain.

gollark: There is no namespacing, you have to do horrible hackery to make stuff only get included once, and it's less performant than an actual module system would be.
gollark: It does module-system-type things. It's just bad.
gollark: `#include`
gollark: But I think it's *also* rather bad, given stuff like the terrible module system, rampant undefined behaviour, and general inexpressiveness.
gollark: I'm not sure it's *that* simple given various bits of weirdness like type declaration syntax and the separate preprocessor/compiler thing.
