Deny a connection with (6)

I believe the answer is:

disown

(Other definitions for disown that I've seen before include "Repudiate, cast off" , "Repudiate - disinherit" , "Refuse to be associated with (a person)" , "Wins do (anag)" , "Repudiate or refuse to acknowledge a relationship" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
