Wakisaka Yasuzane (脇坂安実)

Yasuzane WAKISAKA was the sixth lord of the Tatsuno Domain in Harima Province. The eighth head of the Wakisaka family in the Tatsuno Domain.

Born on July 2, 1745 as the second son of Yasuoki WAKISAKA, the fourth lord of the Domain. Since Yasuhiro WAKISAKA, the fifth lord of the Domain and older paternal half-brother, did not have an heir, Yasuzane was adopted by Yasuhiro. When his brother died in 1757, he took over as the head of the family and became the sixth lord of the Domain. He was honored and appointed as Jugoinoge (Junior Fifth Rank, Lower Grade) and Governor of Ise Province in January 1758.

He died on August 13, 1759 in Edo. Died at the age of 15. Yasuchika WAKISAKA, his adopted son, succeeded him.
