*''Japanese'': [[大久保]]家 ''(Ookubo-ke)''
The Okubo were descended from the [[Utsunomiya clan|Utsunomiya]] family and were for a time known as the Utsu. They were long-time retainers of the [[Matsudaira clan|Matsudaira]] family and in the service of [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] achieved much success. A scandal centered around the Okubo that culminated in the [[1614]] dispossessing of [[Okubo Tadachika]] was a nearly fatal blow to that family's position under the [[Tokugawa clan|Tokugawa]].
