*''Died: [[1658]]''
*''Japanese'': [[伊達]] 忠宗 ''(Date Tadamune)''
Date Tadamune was the second son of [[Date Masamune]], and succeeded his father as lord of [[Sendai han]].
Tadamune was named his father's heir, as he was the son of one of Masamune's formal wives, while his elder half-brother, [[Date Hidemune]], was the son of a concubine and thus less eligible to become heir. Hidemune became lord of the smaller branch [[han|domain]] of [[Uwajima han]], while Tadamune went on to become lord of Sendai following Masamune's death in [[1636]].
Tadamune was betrothed at one time to Ichigimi-hime, an infant daughter of [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]]. However, after the young princess died at the age of two, Tadamune was betrothed on [[1617]]/12/13 instead to [[Furihime]], a granddaughter of Ieyasu and adoptive daughter of [[Tokugawa Hidetada]].
