Talk:Ikeda Munemasa

Year of Birth
I'm pretty sure 1727 is the correct date, but am including both for now just out of an over-abundance of caution for now. G0T0 (talk) 01:57, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

Confusion with Ikeda Tsunamasa
Okay, there's definitely some confusion with Ikeda Tsunamasa. Sources such as this one in Google Books:

https://books.google.com/books?id=smNM4ElP3XgC&pg=PA376&lpg=PA376&dq=%22Hakuin+Ekaku%22+%22Ikeda%22&source=bl&ots=ZMAvZdy3bl&sig=NKPB6KRmVTjnE2vwLa5gzczpv2c&hl=en&sa=X&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=%22Hakuin%20Ekaku%22%20%22Ikeda%22&f=false

and this one http://terebess.hu/zen/hakuin-works.html

Seem to suggest that one Ikeda Tsunamasa was daimyo at the time. Not sure who is wrong where and it's driving me mental.

Hakuin
Pretty damn sure Munemasa is not the daimyo Hakuin Ekaku wrote to. Think Hakuin was writing to Munemasa's father the name year said father retired, so it seems to be cited both ways. Pretty sure. G0T0 (talk)
