Biography

Masatsune was the fourth son of Hoshina Masayuki and became daimyō in 1669 on the retirement of his father. He understood the construction of his father's monumental grave at Hanitsu Jinja in Inawashiro in 1675. He is also known for reviving the Oyaku-en, a medicinal herbs garden which had been established by the Ashina clan during their tenure over Aizu. However, his tenure was a constant struggle against the machinations of his mother, Shoko-in (1620-1691), who wielded a strong influence and promoted less-than-qualified relatives to various high posts, including that of karō. He was married to a daughter of Maeda Toshitsune of Kaga Domain, but had only one daughter. He adopted his younger brother, Matsudaira Masakata as his heir and died in 1681.
