佐倉藩
During the time of Shōgun Tokugawa Ietsuna, Sano Domain was revived as a 10,000 "koku" subsidiary holding of Sakura Domain for Hotta Masataka, the third son of the "Tairō" Hotta Masatoshi. The Hotta built a modest "jin'ya" from which to rule the domain in line with its minor status. However, when Hotta Masataka was relocated to Katada Domain in Omi Province in 1698, the domain lapsed back to "tenryō" status. The 4th generation descendant of Hotta Masatoshi, Hotta Masaatsu, relocated from Katada back to Sano in 1826, where his descendants continued to reside to the end of the Tokugawa shogunate. The domain was quick to support the pro-imperial cause in the Boshin war of the Meiji restoration.
