Hidenobu was an infant (and then known as Sambôshi) when his [[Oda Nobutada|father]] and [Oda Nobunaga|grandfather]] were killed by the forces of [[Akechi Mitsuhide]] on 21 June [[1582]]. He was suggested as a successor to Nobunaga by [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]] at the [[Kiyosu Conference]] and this was at length accepted by the bulk of the [[Oda clan (Owari)|Oda]] retainers. Hidenobu was given [[Gifu castle]] in [[Mino province]] when he came of age, though he, of course, was never to succeed his grandfather in anything but name. He sided with [[Ishida Mitsunari]] during the [[Sekigahara Campaign]] ([[1600]]) and had his castle was stormed by [[Ikeda Terumasa]] and [[Fukushima Masanori]]. Although he was a [[Christian]] (and in this capacity known as [[Paul]]) he shaved his head and became a monk, dying two years later at [[Mt. Koya]].
