The Tokugawa Yoshinobu House (徳川慶喜家 Tokugawa Yoshinobu-ke) was founded in 1902 when Emperor Meiji permitted Tokugawa Yoshinobu the last Shōgun of Japan to found a house with the highest rank of nobility kōshaku (Prince). The title was officially declared obsolete in 1947 though the family still maintains it. The wife of Prince Takamatsu-no-miya Nobuhito (third son of Emperor Taishō) was Tokugawa Kikuko daughter of the second Prince of the Yoshinobu-ke Yoshihisa.
