逆にデメリットとして、こうした大番役は惣領に限らずその子が請け負う事もあったが、子が京にいる間に惣領がなくなった場合、地元で弟・叔父などが勝手に惣領の地位を収奪してしまう、という事態が起きることもあった（例：上総広常）。
There were also some demerits: For example, the post of obanyaku was sometimes assumed not by the head of a clan but by his son, and in such a case, when the head of the clan died while his son was in Kyoto, it sometimes happened that the postion of head was deprived of by his younger brother or his uncle (an example: Hirotsune KAZUSA).

その人たちの云うには、その人たちは私達の叔父の友だちで、叔父は二三ヶ月前に、ヨハネスブルグで貧困のうちに亡くなったが、その最後の際に、その親戚の者で、大変困っている者があるかどうかを、調べてみてくれと云ったとのことでした。
They said that my uncle was a friend of theirs that he had died some months before in great poverty in Johannesburg, and that he had asked them with his last breath to hunt up his relations, and see that they were in no want.

尊子内親王は『栄花物語』によれば「いみじう美しげに光るやう」な姫宮であったといい、摂関家嫡流を外戚に何不自由ない将来を約束されていたが、外祖父藤原伊尹や母懐子、そして叔父達までも次々と早世したために有力な後見を失ってしまう。

この時萩藩で政務を担当していた浦元敏と国司広通は事を穏便に解決しようと、徳山藩の重臣と縁故の深い奈古屋与左衛門（徳山藩家老･奈古屋玄蕃と徳山藩士･奈古屋里人の叔父）を特使として徳山藩に派遣したが、別段謝罪の意思を表明しなかった。
To settle the situation peacefully, Mototoshi URA and Hiromichi KOKUSHI, who were in charge of political affairs in the Hagi clan at that time, sent Yozaemon NAGOYA (an uncle of Genba NAGOYA, a chief retainer of the Tokuyama clan, and of Satondo NAGOYA, a samurai retainer of the Tokuyama clan), who had a close connection with senior retainers of the Tokuyama clan, to the Tokuyama domain as a special envoy, but the Tokuyama clan expressed no apology specifically.

家康からの破格の条件を断ったのが、豊臣家への忠誠のためであったかについては実証することはできず、逆に信繁の兄や叔父らが徳川家の臣下であることを根拠に「信繁は徳川方の間者である」という豊臣家臣からの誹謗中傷もあったと言われている。
It can't be proved that he refused the preferential condition proposed by Ieyasu because of loyalty to the Toyotomi family, but adversely, based on the fact that Nobushige's older brother and uncle were vassals of the Tokugawa family, it is said that there was defamation from vassals of Toyotomi that 'Shigenobu is a spy of the Tokugawa side.'

本来は叔父の武田信廉が継ぐことになっていたが、それでは勝頼が納得しないため、信玄と信廉の協議の上で勝頼の息子の武田信勝を信廉の養子にした上で勝頼を後見として躑躅ヶ崎館に移り、信玄病死の際に信勝が後を継いだともいわれる異説がある。
One story has a different explanation as follows: originally, his uncle Nobukado TAKEDA was to be the successor, but that would be unacceptable for Katsuyori, and so Shingen and Nobukado discussed and decided that Nobukado would adopt Katsuyori's son Nobukatsu TAKEDA and move Katsuyori to Tsutsujigasaki-yakata (Tsutsujigasaki Mansion), and when Shingen died of illness, Nobukatsu succeeded him.

この2つの戦いを一括りにすることの是非については、議論の余地があるものの、両者とも本願寺10世証如と、その後見人蓮淳（8世蓮如の6男で証如の外祖父であり大叔父でもある）による法主の権限強化を図った政策方針の末に生じた出来事である。
It is disputable to treat these two wars as one historical event, but both wars happened as a result of the policy by which Shonyo, the 10th chief priest of Hongan-ji Temple, and his guardian Renjun (the 6th son of Rennyo, the 8th chief priest, and also both a maternal grandfather and a grand-uncle of Shonyo) tried to strengthen the authority of hoshu (a head of a Buddhist sect).

中川の養父・中川武平太、実父・中川禄左衛門が戊辰戦争で西園寺に従軍して以来、西園寺と中川家が主従関係にあったこと、叔父・中川謙二郎が明治初年から大正期にかけて西園寺公望と親しくしていたことが西園寺公と小十郎の親密な関係の礎となった。
The close relationship between Supreme Order Prince SAIONJI and Kojuro was due to the following facts: since his adoptive father Buheita NAKAGAWA and Rokuzaemon NAKAGAWA served on active duty for Kinmochi SAIONJI in the Boshin Civil War, the Saionji family and the Nakagawa family had a master-subordinate relationship; and his uncle Kenjiro NAKAGAWA enjoyed a close association with Kinmochi SAIONJI since the initial year of the Meiji Period to the Taisho Period.

まず、左衛門権佐就任時には彼の異母兄吉田経藤が官職を抜かされた屈辱から出家し、従二位叙任の際にも縁戚に当たる姉小路忠方が出世争いに敗れた衝撃からこれも出家、更に権大納言就任時には四条隆顕（後深草院二条の叔父）を蹴落とす形で就任している。
At first, when he assumed the position of the Saemon no Gon no Suke (Provisional Assistant Captain of the Left Division of Outer Palace Guards), his elder brother, Tsunefuji YOSHIDA became a priest, as he was ashamed of being overtaken in promotion of an official rank and, when he became Junii (Junior Second Rank), Tadakata ANEKOJI, who was a relative, also became a priest due to the shock of being out promoted, furthermore, when he became the Gon Dainagon, he assumed the position in a form to kick Takaaki SHIJO (uncle of the Gofukakusain no Nijo) out of the position.

その後、次男の二条良実が祖父の公経の後押しもあって関白となったが、祖父の後ろ盾でなったことを見てもわかるように、後嵯峨天皇の下で公経と土御門定通（天皇の大叔父）が政治の実権を握った一方で、天皇家との関係を失った道家の実力は衰退していた。
His second son Yoshizane NIJO had the support of his grandfather Kintsune and became the Kanpaku, but as could be seen from the support of his grandfather, the political power of Michiie started to weaken after declining relations with the Imperial family while Kintsune and Sadamichi TSUCHIMIKADO (the maternal uncle of the emperor) gained control of the government under Emperor Gosaga.

同年、甲斐国の武田晴信の信濃侵攻によって領地を追われた村上義清・高梨政頼（景虎の叔父）らの信濃国人が領地復権を望んで景虎のもとへ逃亡してくると、8月にはこれに応じて信濃に出兵し、川中島（長野市南郊）で晴信と対峙する（第1次川中島の戦い）。
In the same year, when local lords in Shinano Province such as Yoshikiyo MURAKAMI, Masayori TAKANASHI (Kagetora's uncle) and so on who were disposed of their territories due to the invasion of Shinano Province by Harunobu TAKEDA in Kai Province and escaped to Kagetora with the hope of reinstatement of their territories, Kagetora dispatched troops to Shinano Province in response to the request in September and confronted Harunobu at Kawanakajima (southern surburb of Nagano City) (the first Battle of Kawanakajima).

His father, Imperial Prince Tamehira, was a member of the unfortunate imperial family, who felt dejected after losing his mother, FUJIWARA no Anshi, who had the title of Chugu (Empress), and maternal grandfather, FUJIWARA no Morosuke, early and was forestalled by his younger brother Imperial Prince Morihira (later became Emperor Enyu), who was appointed by uncles who feared that Takaakira would control the government as a maternal relative, despite being the direct maternal younger brother to Emperor Reizei.

生前はちっとも交渉の無かった叔父のラルフが、その死後に気にかけてくれるなどと云うことは、全く不思議なことでございましたが、なおカラザースさんの云うには、叔父のラルフが私の父の死をきいたので、私たちの上に責任を感じてそう言ったのだと云うことでした」
It seemed strange to us that Uncle Ralph, who took no notice of us when he was alive should be so careful to look after us when he was dead, but Mr. Carruthers explained that the reason was that my uncle had just heard of the death of his brother, and so felt responsible for our fate.''

そもそもの発端は、平将門の叔父達の「婿入り先」であって、それによって平将門の叔父達は関東、特に常陸国、上総国、下総国、武蔵国などに地盤を築いたと見られ、その「婿入り先」同士の利害対立が、平将門と叔父、従兄弟同士の抗争に結びついていった形跡がある。
It originally started with the 'family the groom married into' uncles of the TAIRA no Masakado, and uncles of TAIRA no Masakado built a structure in Kanto region especially in Hitachi, Kazusa, Shimousa, and Musashi Provinces, and there was a trace that the conflict of interest between 'places where the grooms married' led to the struggle between TAIRA no Masakado, his uncle, and cousins.

前園実知雄（奈良芸術短期大学教授）や白石太一郎（奈良大学教授）は、2人の被葬者が『日本書紀』が記す587年6月の暗殺時期と一致する事などから、聖徳太子の叔父で蘇我馬子に暗殺された穴穂部皇子と、宣化天皇の皇子ともされる宅部皇子の可能性が高い事を論じている。
Michio MAEZONO (Professor, Nara College of Arts) and Taichiro SHIRAISHI (Professor, Nara University) argue that it is highly possible Prince Anahobe (uncle of Prince Taishi, assassinated by SOGA no Umako) and Prince Yakabe (prince of the Emperor Senka) are the ones that were buried in this tumulus, because the tumulus was built when an assassination happened in June 587 according to 'Nihonshoki' (Chronicles of Japan).

院政期に至ると庶流の源国房（明国の叔父）の系統や源仲政（明国の弟）の系統が北面武士などとして院に伺候したが、摂関家領である多田荘を継承した明国の系統は多田行綱（明国の曾孫）の代に至るまで院北面とはなっておらず、代々摂関家の私的武力としての性格を持ち続けた。
In the cloistered government period, collateral lines such as MINAMOTO no Kunifusa (Akikuni's uncle) and MINAMOTO no Nakamasa (Akikuni's younger brother) served as the cloistered emperor's army while the line of Akikuni who inherited Tada Manors, the estates owned by the regent family, did not join the cloistered emperor's army and continued to be a private army for the regent family through the generation of Tada Yukitsuna (a grand-grand son of Akikuni).

だが、『中右記』によると、前年の寛治6年（1092年）6月には陸奥国国司藤原基家 (陸奥守)の解文により、経清の子藤原清衡に合戦の企ての嫌疑がかけられていることから、両者を関連づけ、この師妙親子を清衡の大伯叔父である国妙の子及び孫ではないかとする見解がある。
According to 'Chuyuki' (a diary written by FUJIWARA no Munetada), however, the letter written by FUJIWARA no Motoie (Mutsu no kami), an officer of local government in Mutsu Province, said the fact that Tsunekiyo's son FUJIWARA no Kiyohira was under suspicion for attempting to launch a battle in June 1092, the previous year of TAIRA no Mototae's attack, and consequently, there is a view that they were related and Morotae and his son might be the child and grandchild of TAIRA no Kunitae, who was the great uncle of Kiyohira.

叔父藤原教通の死後は従兄の藤原信長と摂関の地位をめぐって対立するが、賢子を寵愛し、藤原氏の血を引かない弟達（実仁親王、輔仁親王）ではなく、自らの直系への皇位継承を望んでいた天皇と協調し、摂関・藤氏長者、さらに太政大臣となった信長を差し置いての一座獲得に成功した。
After the death of his uncle, FUJIWARA no Norimichi, Morozane and his cousin, FUJIWARA no Nobunaga, fought over the regent post, but because Morozane cooperated with the Emperor who loved Kenshi very much and who was hoping to let his direct family line take over the throne instead of his younger brothers (Imperial Prince Sanehito and Imperial Prince Sukehito) who were not of Fujiwara origin, Morozane successfully took over the family headship from Nobunaga who served as the regent, the head of the Fujiwara clan, and Dajodaijin (Grand Minister).

家康は大坂方の諸将の中で最も活躍した信繁に脅威を覚え、大坂冬の陣の後には信繁の兄真田信之に命じて信濃一国40万石で彼を調略しようとしているが、この破格の条件に興味を微塵も見せず豊臣家への忠誠を最期まで貫き通している（一説には叔父真田信尹に命じて上田10万石とも）。
Ieyasu felt that Nobushige, who was most active among warlords on the Osaka side, was dangerous and ordered Nobushige's older brother Nobuyuki SANADA to persuade Nobushige to switch sides for 400,000 koku of Shinano Province, but he wasn't interested in this preferential condition at all and persisted in his loyalty to the Toyotomi family (according to one theory, Ieyasu ordered Nobushige's uncle Nobutada SANADA and offered 100,000 koku of Ueda).

その後は後白河法皇随一の側近として信任を受けたが、かつて平家と親しかった経緯から叔父である九条兼実をはじめとする公卿から基通に対する非難が相次ぎ、1186年3月には源義経が兄・源頼朝追討の院宣を法皇に出させることを仲介した張本人と見なされて全ての任を解かれ、篭居されるに至った。
Although he was trusted by Cloistered Emperor Goshirakawa as his closest associate, he came under constant criticism from nobles including Kanezane KUJO, his uncle, due to the close relationship he and his family had maintained with the Taira clan, and in March 1186, he was eventually dismissed from all his posts and forced into retirement as he was regarded as the person who had advised the Cloister Emperor to issue a decree that ordered MINAMOTO no Yoshitsune to defeat his elder brother, MINAMOTO no Yoritomo.

しかし、尊氏が没し2代将軍となった足利義詮および鎌倉公方となった足利基氏兄弟は、幼少時に執事として補佐した叔父の憲顕を密かに越後守護に再任し、1362年（貞治2年）には関東管領畠山国清を罷免しこれに抵抗して領国の伊豆に籠った国清を討伐、翌年、憲顕を国清の後釜として鎌倉に召還しようとした。
However, after Takauji died, Yoshiakira ASHIKAGA who had become the 2nd shogun and Motouji ASHIKAGA who had become a Kamakura kubo, secretly made their uncle Noriaki, who had assisted them as steward in their childhood, be reassigned as Echigo Shugo (provincial constable), and in 1362 they dismissed Kanto Kanrei, Kunikiyo HATAKEYAMA, who made resistance against the treatment and barricaded himself in the territory of Izu but was eventually suppressed; and a year later, they tried to bring Noriaki back to Kamakura as Kunikiyo's replacement.

これは泰時が『法曹至要抄』や明法道の目安（訴状・陳状などの法律文書）を研究していたことや、編纂に参加しているのが泰時とともに六波羅探題を務めた叔父の北条時房（幕府連署）や京都の下級官人出身者やその子弟が中心であったのも御成敗式目の法源を武家慣習法ではなく公家法に求めたからと考えられている。
It has been believed that the reason why Yasutoki studied 'Hososhiyo-sho' (a legal book compiled by the Sakanoue clan between the end of Heian period and the early Kamakura period) as well as the criterion of Myobodo (study of Codes) (legal documents of petition, petition for objection, and so forth) and why his uncle Tokifusa HOJO, a bakufu rensho (assistant to regents in bakufu) who had worked as Rokuhara Tandai (an administrative and judicial agency in Rokuhara, Kyoto) with him and person who had come from lower-ranking government official in Kyoto and their descendents participated in the compilation were that he sought the source of law not for the common law for samurai families, but for the court noble law.

（綱吉は桂昌院のために朝廷に従一位叙任の働きかけを行っていた時期でうまくいけばこの年にも叙任がある可能性が高かった）また、浅野内匠頭の叔父である内藤忠勝も似たような事件を起こしているにも拘わらず近親者が同様の事件を起こしたことから、これまでの処罰の軽さが今回の事件の一因となったと考えた可能性も高い。
(Tsunayoshi was appealing to the Imperial Court for Keisho-in about Juichii [Junior First Rank] and it is highly likely she will be granted it in that year) Also, it is highly possible the weak punishment of the past contributed to that incident because despite Tadakatsu NAITO, the uncle of Asano Takumi no Kami, had committed the same crime, this time his close blood relatives did.

また母親の穴穂部間人皇女（あなほべのはしひとのひめみこ）が実母（小姉君）の実家で出産したため、つまり叔父にあたる蘇我馬子の家で生まれたことから馬子屋敷が転じて厩戸（うまやと）と付けられたという説もあるが、現在のところ生誕地の近辺に厩戸（うまやと）という地名があり、そこから名付けられたという説が有力である。
While one theory states that his mother Anahobe no Hashihito no Himemiko gave birth to him at her real mother Oane no Kimi's parent's house, i.e., the house of his uncle SOGA no Umako (Umako=lit. Son of Horse), and he was named after 'the residence of Umako,' the most convincing theory at present states that he was named after the place named 'Umayato' near his birth place.

参加者はこの他に良基の2子である二条師良・二条師嗣、猶子四辻善成、叔父今小路良冬、五条為邦、松殿忠嗣、今川貞世、吉田兼煕、冷泉為邦（為秀の子）、東坊城長綱・東坊城秀長親子、宗久、頓阿・経賢親子、安倍宗時・羽淵宗信・丹波嗣長・丹波守長・鷹司忠頼・月輪家尹・頓乗（中御門俊顕）・薀堅（武藤為用）の計23名であった。

義朝側の戦力は、三条殿襲撃に参加した源重成・源光基・源季実、信西を追捕した源光保などの同盟軍、子息の義平・源朝長・頼朝、叔父・源義隆、信濃源氏・平賀義信などの一族、鎌田正家・後藤実基・佐々木秀義などの郎等により形成され、義朝の勢力基盤である関東からは、三浦義澄・上総介広常・山内首藤氏などが参戦したに過ぎなかった。
The warriors fighting on Yoshitomo's side included MINAMOTO no Shigenari, MINAMOTO no Mitsumoto, and MINAMOTO no Hidezane, all of whom had taken part in the raid on the Sanjo Palace, and MINAMOTO no Mitsuyasu and others who had tracked down and captured Shinzei, as well as Yoshitomo's sons Yoshihira, Tomonaga, and Yoritomo and his uncle MINAMOTO no Yoshitaka and Yoshinobu HIRAGA and others of the Shinano branch of the Minamoto clan, and his army took shape around his retainers, including Masaie KAMATA, Sanemoto GOTO, and Hideyoshi SASAKI; yet from the Kanto, the source of Yoshitomo's power, only a handful, including Yoshizumi MIURA, Hidetsune KAZUSANOSUKE (TAIRA no Hidetsune), and some warriors of the Yamanouchi-Sudo clan were present to fight with him.

ずっと後のことではあるが、推古天皇32年（624年）、馬子が葛城県（馬子の本居（ウブスナ）とされる）の支配権を望んだ時、女帝は、「あなたは私の叔父ではあるが、だからといって、公の土地を私人に譲ってしまっては、後世の人には私が愚かな女だといわれ、一方であなたも、不忠だと謗られよう」と言って、この要求を拒絶したという。
It is said that, long afterward in 624, when Umako hoped for the right to rule Katsuragi-ken Prefecture (which is said to be Umako's birthplace), she refused this demand by saying that 'even though you are my uncle, if I donate a public land to a private person, the future generation will call me a foolish woman and, on the other hand, they will criticize you as being disloyal.'

同年12月11日 (旧暦)に下野国国府を占領し、続いて迎撃に出兵した上野国国司藤原尚範（同国は親王任国のため、介が最高責任者。藤原純友の叔父）を捕らえて助命する代わりに印綬を接収して国外に放逐、12月19日 (旧暦)には指揮官を失った上野国府を落とし、関東一円を手中に収めて「新皇」を名乗り天皇に即位、独自に除目を行い岩井市（茨城県坂東市）に政庁を置いた。
On January 27 of the same year, he occupied the local government of Shimonotsuke Province, and then he captured the governor of Kozuke province, FUJIWARA no Hisanori (because this province was a shinno ninkoku [provinces whose gubernatorial posts were reserved as sinecures for imperial princes], the suke had the highest authority), and in exchange for sparing his life, Masakado took possession of the inju and exiled him; on February 4, he toppled the provincial office of Kozuke, which had lost its commander, thereby capturing the entirety of the Kanto region, enthroned himself as Shinno (the New Emperor), and, performing a Jimoku assignment ceremony himself, established the seicho (government office) in Iwai City (Bando City of Ibaraki Prefecture).

「大方の世の政事を始め、はかなき程の事まで御心にまかせぬ事なし（政治の上でのどんな些細なことでも女院の思いのままにならないことはなかった）」（『たまきはる』）とまで評された政治的発言力により、自身に近い人々である信範（叔父）、宗盛（猶子）、時忠・親宗（兄弟）の昇進を後押しした（ただし、嘉応の強訴では時忠・信範が解官、配流されていることから、その発言力も後白河を押さえるほどのものではなかったと思われる）。
It was said in 'Tamakiharu' that 'there was nothing that Nyoin couldn't handle nor control concerning any small detailed issues about politics,' so whatever Shigeko said had a big influence on politics and she encouraged promotion for people close to her, like Nobunori (uncle), Munemori (adopted child), Tokitada, and Chikamune, (brothers). (However, because Tokitada and Nobunori, both lost their positions and were banished because of the Kao dispute, it was believed that Shigeko did not have enough political influence to stop Emperor Goshirakawa's political power.)

大将に悪右衛門督信頼、その子　新侍従藤原信親、信頼の実兄にあたる兵部権大輔藤原家頼、民部権少輔藤原基成、弟の尾張少将藤原信説、そのほかに伏見源中納言源師仲、越後中将藤原成親、治部卿兼通、伊予前司信員、壱岐守貞知、但馬守有房、兵庫頭源頼政、出雲前司源光保（光保）、伊賀守光基、河内守源季実、その子息左衛門尉季盛、義朝はじめ源氏一門ではまず左馬頭義朝を筆頭に、長子鎌倉悪源太源義平、次男中宮大夫進源朝長、三男兵衛佐源頼朝、義朝の叔父陸奥六郎義隆、義朝の弟新宮十郎源行家、従兄弟の佐渡式部大輔（大夫）源重成、平賀四郎平賀義宣とある。
