Subject: [R-M222] clan leadership

If no direct male descendant of a clan chief exists to assume leadership, it will be passed to a son of a female descendant or nearest relative.  At that time the husband of the female may take the clan surname and his son - the new chief - will also assume the clan surname.

Cheers,
