The following year, in 1847, Hisatada was promoted from Udaijin to Sadaijin.[2] Over the ensuing years, he served as an imperial envoy to Edo on a number of occasions.
One of his sons was adopted by Takatsukasa Sukehiro and given the name Takatsukasa Hiromichi; he later succeeded another of Sukehiro's sons to become monshu (head) of the Kyoto temple of Daigo-ji Sanbô-in.[3]
Hisatada was named kanpaku on 1856/8/8.[4]
