Kagesuke was a younger son of [[Yamaoka Kageyuki|Yamaoka Mimasaka no kami Kageyuki]]. He at first was a retainer of [[Rokkaku Yoshikata]] and held [[Zeze castle]] in southern [[Omi province|Ômi]]. After the death of [[Oda Nobunaga|Nobunaga]] he became a retainer of [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]]. When Hideyoshi and [[Shibata Katsuie]] came to odds in [[1583]], Kagesuke and his elder brother [[Yamaoka Kagetaka|Kagetaka]] (d.[[1585]]) secretly communicated with the latter. Hideyoshi discovered the [[Yamaoka clan|Yamaoka's]] treacherous activities and deprived them of their domain. Kagesuke later found service with [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] while Kagetaka retired and passed away a few years later.
