Motonobu was said to have been a son of a Yamabushi (mountain ascetic) from Yonezawa. According to tradition, after staying at a Buddhist temple he managed to secure a position under [[Kano Munetoki]] and was at length noticed by [[Date Terumune]]. When Terumune was killed in 1585, Motonobu committed suicide so that he might follow his lord in death.
Sons: Munenobu, (Shikibu-taiyu) Harunobu
