Hirosada's first two wives were both of samurai status, and he had one daughter, Otsune, by one of them. He also had a daughter named Omase, with one of the household servants, a woman named Riso. Following the death of both of his samurai wives, in [[1764]], at age 54, Hirosada married one of his household servants, a 25-year-old woman by the name of Umeno. Though many of Hirosada's friends and family accepted her as his wife, the domain government refused to officially recognize the marriage, Umeno being below samurai status.

Hirosada and Umeno had a son, [[Mori Yoshiki]], in [[1768]], who would go on to become a fairly successful government official. Yoshiki was Hirosada's first son, but he was not, at least initially, situated to serve as Hirosada's heir, since some years earlier, in [[1759]], after falling briefly but seriously ill, Hirosada had adopted his nephew, Mori Hirotake, naming Hirotake his heir.
