Tokugawa Yoshinao was the ninth son of [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]], and is considered the founder of the [[Owari Tokugawa clan]]. Yoshinao’s mother was a certain [[Okane]]. He was given his late elder brother [[Tokugawa Tadayoshi|Tadayoshi's]] [[Owari han|Owari]] fief and an income of 601,000 ''[[koku]]''. He became the head of the Owari Tokugawa, one of the three ''[[gosanke]]'' houses/lineages established by his father Tokugawa Ieyasu to provide heirs to the main line should the latter require one. Like his two younger brothers, [[Tokugawa Yorinobu|Yorinobu]] and [[Tokugawa Yorifusa|Yorifusa]], Yoshinao enjoyed his father’s favor.
