Tokugawa Iesato
After the Meiji Restoration, the final Tokugawa "shōgun", Tokugawa Yoshinobu, resigned his post and moved to Sunpu in retirement. However, he was not allowed to move into Sunpu Castle, but was given the former Sunpu "Daikansho" offices to be his residence. His heir, Tokugawa Iesato, was briefly established as "daimyō" of "Shizuoka Domain" (700,000 "koku") in 1868 until its abolition a year later in 1869.
