Shin-Kôgimon-in was the last favorite consort of [[Emperor Go-Mizunoo]], and the mother of two Imperial princesses and four Imperial princes, one of whom went on to take the throne as [[Emperor Reigen]] (r. [[1663]]-[[1687]]).
Her children included four sons, Gyôjo (1640-1695, abbot at [[Myoho-in|Myôhô-in]]), Shinkei (1649-1707, abbot at [[Ichijo-in|Ichijô-in]]), Sonshô (1651-1694, abbot at [[Shoren-in|Shôren-in]]), and Emperor Reigen (1654-1732), and two daughters, [[Shinanomiya Tsuneko]] (1642-1702), who went on to marry [[Konoe Motohiro]], and Eikyô (1657-1686), who became abbess at [[Daisho-ji|Daishô-ji]].
It is said that she and her children, along with her son-in-law Konoe Motohiro, but with the exception of Emperor Reigen, formed a close-knit clique within the Imperial Court, constantly paying one another visits and engaging in social and cultural activities together.
