*''Japanese'': 紀州徳川家 ''(Kishuu Tokugawa ke)''
The Tokugawa of [[Kii province]] were one of the ''[[Gosanke]]'', the three branch families of [[Tokugawa Ieyasu|Tokugawa Ieyasu's]] own [[Tokugawa clan|lineage]], and the highest ranking samurai families below that Tokugawa main line. Based at the 550,000 ''[[koku]]'' [[han|domain]] of [[Wakayama han|Wakayama]] in Kii province, the Kishû Tokugawa were descended from Ieyasu's eighth son [[Tokugawa Yorinobu]]. The eighth shogun, [[Tokugawa Yoshimune]], was a member of the Kishû line.
