Dad's brother (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

uncle

'dad's brother' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for uncle that I've seen before include "Sam, perhaps" , "takes the pledge" , "Brother of one's parent" , "Grandfather's son" , "For example, Tom Cobbleigh" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal, the Penny Press, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, the Newsday and the King Feature Syndicate.
