Katô Kiyomasa (also known as Toranosuke) was born the son of a flsmith in Nakamura, a village in Owari that supposedly also produced Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

His son, Tadahiro (1597-1653) was later on accused of treason against the Shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu and was banished-a possible clue to the fall of Katô Kiyomasa.

Though often described as a boyhood friend of Hideyoshi, this is unlikely, given the age difference between the men.
