Morishige was a son of [[Date Harumune]] and was adopted by [[Kokuban Moriuji|Kokuban Noto no kami Moriuji]]. He distinguished himself at the [[Battle of Hitadori]] Bridge under [[Date Masamune]] ([[1585]]). In [[1590]], when Masamune submitted to [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]], Morishige went as a hostage and was placed in the custody of [[Gamo Ujisato|Gamô Ujisato]]. In [[1599]] Masamune came to doubt Morishige's loyalty and decided to have him assassinated. Morishige learned of the peril he was in and fled the Date domain, finding service with the [[Satake clan]] and thereafter living in [[Yokote castle]].
