- quote
Minamoto no Yoshishige (源義重, 1135–1202)
was the progenitor of the Nitta branch family of the Minamoto samurai clan, who fought alongside the Minamoto in the Genpei War.
He is also known as Nitta Tarō and 新田義重 Nitta Yoshishige.
His father was Minamoto no Yoshikuni and his grandfather Minamoto no Yoshiie.
Yoshishige was posthumously awarded the title of Chinjufu-shōgun, or Commander-in-chief of the Defense of the North, in 1611, four centuries after his death, by the second Tokugawa shōgun, Tokugawa Hidetada.
He ordained as a Buddhist monk and received the Dharma name Jōnichi (上西).
