Sengoku clan (仙石 氏, Sengoku shi) was a Japanese samurai family which descended from the Seiwa-Genji.[1]
History
editThe family origins were in Mino Province.[1] In the early Edo period, the Sengoku were at Komoro Domain.[2] In 1706, the family was moved to Izushi Domain with 30,000 koku revenues.[1] The clan remained in Tajima Province until the end of the Edo period.[3] The head of the clan became a kazoku viscount in the Meiji period.[1]
