Family origins (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

roots

'family origins' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for roots that I've seen before include "Origins; cheers (for)" , "eg Parsnips" , "Antecedents" , "Underground parts of plants" , "Beginnings, origins" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Mirror and The Telegraph.
