Nanbu Toshimochi
was the name of two mid- Edo period Japanese individuals who served as the 11th '' daimyō'' of Morioka Domain in northern Japan and the 37th hereditary chieftain of the Nanbu clan. Nanbu Toshimochi (Kijirō) The first Toshimochi was born on 16 January 1808 as the eldest son of Nanbu Nobusuke, the brother of the 10th ''daimyō'' of Morioka, Nanbu Toshitaka. He was adopted as heir by Toshitaka, and became ''daimyō'' on his death in 1820. As he was still underage, domain affairs were managed by his uncle, Nanbu Nobuchika of Shichinohe Domain. Toshimochi was married to the daughter of Maeda Narihiro of Kaga Domain. However, on 17 September 1821 he died of injuries sustained after falling from a tree in his gardens. As this death occurred before even his first formal audience with the ''shōgun'', the clan retainers were concerned that the Shogunate would use this as an excuse to reduce or abolish Morioka Domain, so the death was unreported.

Shōgun
, officially , was the title of the military dictators of Japan during most of the period spanning from 1185 to 1868. Nominally appointed by the Emperor, shoguns were usually the de facto rulers of the country, though during part of the Kamakura period, shoguns were themselves figureheads, with real power in hands of the Shikken of the Hōjō clan. The office of shogun was in practice hereditary, though over the course of the history of Japan several different clans held the position. The title was originally held by military commanders during Heian period in the eighth and ninth centuries. When Minamoto no Yoritomo gained political ascendency over Japan in 1185, the title was revived to regularize his position, making him the first shogun in the usually understood sense. The shogun's officials were collectively referred to as the ; they were the ones who carried out the actual duties of administration, while the Imperial court retained only nominal authority.Beasley, William G ...

Biography Toshitomo was born as , the eldest son of the 12th ''daimyō'' of Morioka, Nanbu Toshitada.
