Biography edit

As stated above, Narihiro was a son of the 11th shōgun, Ienari. Ienari had many children, who were given in adoption to various daimyō families throughout the country; Narihiro was given to the Tokushima lord, Hachisuka Narimasa, as an adopted heir. Narihiro succeeded to family headship in 1843, and engaged in a variety of reforms, intended to ease the issues of peasant revolt which Narimasa's mismanagement had caused. He continued his headship until 1868, when he was succeeded by Hachisuka Mochiaki.
