Family member possibly Oriental (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

relation

'family member' is the definition.
(a relation or relative)

'possibly oriental' is the wordplay.
'possibly' is an anagram indicator.
'oriental' anagrammed gives 'RELATION'.

(Other definitions for relation that I've seen before include "Oriental kind of family connection" , "Kin" , "Story; member of family" , "Oriental (anag.)" , "Reference" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
