Tamekage was the son of [[Nagao Yoshikage|Nagao Yoshikage]] ([[1459]]-[[1506]]). He was nominally the [[Uesugi clan|Uesugi's]] governor for [[Echigo province|Echigo]] but clashed with his overlords in 1509. He also fought with [[Jojo Sadanori]] in [[1513]]. In [[1520]] he attacked [[Etchu province|Etchû province]] and defeated the [[Shiina clan|Shiina family]], soon afterwards defeating and forcing the suicide of [[Jinbo Yoshimune]]. He became involved in a conflict with the [[Ikko-Ikki]] of [[Kaga province|Kaga}} and was defeated and killed at Sendanno by [[Enami Kazuyori]] sometime around 1536. He was succeeded by his eldest son [[Nagao Harukage|Harukage]]. His wife, known to us as [[Tora Gozen]], and the mother of Kagetora, lived to 1568 in [[Kasugayama castle]].
