* ''Birth: [[1557]]''
* ''Death: [[1612]]''
* ''Titles: Musashi no kami, Shinjûrô''
* ''Son: [[Kamei Masanori]]''
* ''Distinction: [[Amako clan|Amako]], [[Toyotomi clan|Toyotomi]] retainer''
Korenori assumed the name Kamei as a young man as that Amako retainer family had been left without an heir after the death of [[Kamei Hidetsuna]] in battle with the [[Mori clan|Môri]]. Korenori joined [[Yamanaka Shikanosuke]] (to whom he was connected by virtue of marrying the younger sister of Shikanosuke's wife) in fighting to revive the fortunes of the Amako (who had fallen to the Môri in [[1566]]). When the Amako cause finally died (along with [[Amako Katsuhisa]] and, later, Shikanosuke) with the fall of [[Kozuki castle]] in [[1578]], Korenori became a retainer of [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]]. He received [[Shikano castle]] in [[Inaba province]] and participated in the [[Kyushu Campaign]] ([[1587]]). He supported [[Tokugawa Ieyasu|Tokugawa Ieyasu's]] cause during the [[Sekigahara Campaign]] and afterwards saw his income increased from 13,000 koku to 43,000 koku.
