History
Tsurumaki Khan was created on May 19, 1827 for Mizuno Tadateru (1761-1828), which was previously the third daimyo of Hojo Khan in the province of Ava (1775-1827). Mizuno Tadateru moved from Ava to Kazusa province. Since he had the right in his status to his own castle, and not a fortified house, his jin'ya was called "Tsurumaki Castle". The next 1828 he died. His adoptive son, Mizuno Tadamitsu (1792–1842), the 2nd daimyo of Tsurumaki Khan (1828–1842), also served as a Wakadosiyori in the Shogun government in Edo .
His son and successor, Mizuno Tadayori (1824–1884), the 3rd daimyo of Tsurumaki Khan (1842–1871), during the War, Bosin fought on the side of the Tokugawa shogunate against the imperial power, attacking his neighbors, supporters of the emperor. As a result of the defeat of the Shogunate, Mizuno Tadayori was forced to abandon most of his lands in the provinces of Ava and Kazusa , receiving in 1869 new lands in return. Mizuno Tadayori received a pardon from Emperor Meiji the following year and was appointed governor of his principality.
In 1871, after the administrative-political reform, Tsurumaki-khan was liquidated. Initially, the territory of the former principality became part of the new Kisarazu Prefecture, which was then incorporated into the modern Chiba Prefecture . Subsequently, the last daimyo of Tsurumaki Khan received the title of viscount (boobs) in the new Japanese aristocratic hierarchy - kazoku .
According to the census of 1869 , in the principality of Tsurumaki, there were 20,586 people and 4,757 households [1] .
