Told of being of the same family (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

related

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'told' is the first definition.
(as in relating a story)

'of the same family' is the second definition.
(relatives are related)

'of being' is the link.

(Other definitions for related that I've seen before include "within family" , "of one family" , "Reported" , "Told (a story etc)" , "Having family links" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
