Matsudaira Yasushige (松平 康重?, 1568 – August 14, 1640) was a Japanese samurai of the Azuchi-Momoyama through early Edo periods. He was the family head of the Matsui-Matsudaira, a family which received the Matsudaira name as an honorific following his father's service to Tokugawa Ieyasu. Yasushige ended his life as daimyo of Kishiwada han. There is rumour said that he is Ieyasu's illegitimate son.
