Ujisato was the son of [[Gamo Katahide|Gamô Katahide]] and fought in his first battle ([[Battle of Okochi|Okochi]]) at the age of 13. He married one of [[Oda Nobunaga|Oda Nobunaga's]] daughters and was given a sizable fief in [[Ise provinc|Ise]]. He later sheltered Nobunaga's widow during [[Akechi clan|Akechi's]] uprising and joined [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi|Hideyoshi's]] camp following [[Battle of Yamazaki|Yamazaki]] ([[1582]]). He served in the [[Kyushu Campaign]] ([[1587]]) and the [[Odawara Campaign]] ([[1590]]), after which he was given a huge fief in [[Mutsu province|Mutsu]] (Aizu). Ujisato served on Hideyoshi's staff in Kyushu during the [[First Korean Campaign]], which he returned to Aizu and built [[Wakamatsu castle]]. He died suddenly in 1596 - leading some to suspect that Hideyoshi himself had had a hand in his demise.
