Tokugawa Yorifusa was the eleventh son of [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]], and was the first head of the [[Mito Tokugawa clan]], one of the ''[[gosanke]]''.

His mother was [[Oman no Kata]]. He was given a 100,000 ''[[koku]]'' fief at [[Shimotzuma]] in [[Hitachi province]] as a child ([[1603]]), and in [[1621]] was transferred to [[Mito han]], worth 350,000 ''koku''. As a young man he was tutored by [[Nakayama Nobuyoshi|Nakayama Bizen no kami Nobuyoshi]] ([[1576]]-[[1642]]), a member of a former [[Go-Hojo clan|Hôjô]] retainer family. Yorifusa is sometimes said to have been considered the most clever of Ieyasu's last three sons, and a number of anecdotes involving the three of them and Ieyasu survive. Yorifusa's Mito domain line became the third of the ''gosanke'', a lineage which two centuries later provided the 15th and final Tokugawa [[shogun|shôgun]], [[Tokugawa Yoshinobu]].
