 was a Japanese "daimyō" of the early Edo period. He was also known by his title, Sado no kami—Makino Sado no kami Chiashige. He was the son of Makino Takumi no kami Nobushige. 
The Makino were identified as one of the "fudai" or insider "daimyō" clans which were hereditary vassals or allies of the Tokugawa clan, in contrast with the "tozama" or outsider clans.
Makino clan genealogy.
The "fudai" Makino clan originated in 16th century Mikawa Province. Their elevation in status by Toyotomi Hideyoshi dates from 1588. They claim descent from Takechiuchi no Sukune, who was a legendary Statesman and lover of the legendary Empress Jingū.
Chikashige was part of a cadet branch of the Makino which was created in 1633. The Makino were installed at Sekiyado Domain in Shimōsa Province in 1644. From 1668 through the Meiji Restoration, the descendants had holdings at Tanabe Domain (35,000 "koku") in Tango Province. Descendants lived from 1634 through 1868 at Mineyama Domain (11,000 "koku") in Echigo Province.
The head of this clan line was ennobled as a "Viscount" in the Meiji period.
Tokugawa official.
As a youth, Chikashige had joined the household of Tokugawa Iemitsu as a page. In 1633, he had advanced to become "gozenban," the official who served the shōgun his meals. In 1642, he advanced further to become "goshoinban," a captain in Iemitsu's bodyguard.
Before his promotion in income to the level of daimyo, Chikashige was a high-ranking hatamoto.
He served the Tokugawa shogunate as its third Kyoto "shoshidai" in the period spanning January 5, 1655, through July 2, 1668. As "shoshidai," he was actively and personally engaged as the head of a network of spies tasked to discover and report any covert sources of sedition, insurrection or other kinds of unrest.
Retiring in 1673, he died four years later.
