During the reign of Saburo Okumura Sadamichi, after the Battle of Anegawa, his master, the Azai clan, was destroyed and he became a ronin.
Sadamichi's son, Genrokuro Okumura Sadatsugu, had his eldest son, Genshiro, serve Maeda Toshiie, and the eldest son later took the name "Okumura Settsunokami Sadamitsu" and became a samurai of the Kaga domain.
