Asano Nagayuki

Asano Nagayuki was born on June 27, 1864, and died on April 23, 1947. He was the 28th head of the Asano family, a samurai clan that formerly governed Hiroshima Domain prior to the abolition of the han system in 1871.

Nagayuki's father was Asano Nagaatsu (1843–1873). After the death of his biological father at a young age, he was adopted by Asano Nagakoto, the last daimyō of Hiroshima Domain. Nagakoto's tenure as daimyō ended with the abolition of the feudal domain system, and he remained influential as part of the family's leadership. Nagayuki succeeded Nagakoto as the head of the Asano family upon Nagakoto’s death in 1937.

His familial relationships include his marriages to Matsudaira Akiko and Ōkōchi Kyoko. Matsudaira Akiko was the daughter of Matsudaira Sadayasu, of Matsue Domain. Ōkōchi Kyoko was the daughter of Ōkōchi Teruna, of Takasaki Domain.

Nagayuki fathered children with his wives, including Asano Nagatake and Ōkōchi Terunobu, the latter through Kyoko.
