Konoe Iehisa was an early Edo period court noble.
A son of Konoe Iehiro, he served as sesshô, kanpaku, and dajô daijin, and was granted the rank of jugô (aka jusangô), second in rank only to emperors and empresses, an honor that Iehiro had declined.[1]
Iehisa married Kame, a daughter of Shimazu Yoshitaka, lord of Satsuma han, in 1705. She died later that same year. In 1712, he then married another of Yoshitaka's daughters, Mitsu.
