Matsudaira Sadanobu
Occasionally, a family could be raised to or from "fudai" status. For instance, the Matsudaira clan to which Matsudaira Sadanobu belonged went from being a "fudai" house to being a "shinpan" (recognized relative) of the Tokugawa family. Also, a "hatamoto" who had an increase in income which raised his income level over 10,000 "koku" became a "fudai daimyō".
