1) (le) cion mór ar mo mhuintir/theaghlach/chlann (depending on what you mean by family: muintir generally refers to extended family and/or forebears—what, in English, might be called folk(s); teaghlach (or líon tí) refers to the members of a household; clann refers to offspring). You could replace (le) cion mór with (le h)an-chion also.

2) (eg) muintir gan chloí; muintir neamhchloíte
