Hideharu was the eldest son of [[Hori Hidemasa]]. He was given Kasugayama in [[Echigo province]] after his father's death and in [[1598]] his domain was expanded to 350,000 koku around Takato. Just prior to the [[Sekigahara Campaign]] (August-October, [[1600]]) Hideharu squabbled with [[Uesugi Kagekatsu]] of neighboring Aizu, although he was to play only a small role in the 'Eastern' campaign to defeat the [[Uesugi clan]]. He died at a young age, prompting some to question whether [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] may have had a hand in his demise. His son, [[Hori Tadatoshi]], was accused of incompetence in [[1610]], lost his fief at Takato in Echigo province, and was banished to [[Mutsu province]].
