History[]
Oyumi Domain was created in February 1627, when , a hatamoto in the service of Shōgun Tokugawa Hidetada acquired holdings in Sagami, Kazusa and Shimōsa Provinces with revenues exceeding the 10,000 koku necessary to qualify as a daimyō. He was allowed to build a jin'ya on the site of the Sengoku period Oyumi Castle. He later rose to the post of rōjū, and committed junshi on the death of Tokugawa Hidetada. His successors continued to rule Oyumi Domain until the Meiji Restoration.
Holdings at the end of the Edo period[]
As with most domains in the han system, Oyumi Domain consisted of several discontinuous territories calculated to provide the assigned kokudaka, based on periodic cadastral surveys and projected agricultural yields.[1][2] The domain was centered on what is now Chuo Ward and Midori Ward of the city of Chiba.
