was the leader of

"was the leader of the family of" or "was the leader of the descendants of"

Meshullam was the leader of Ginnethon

Ginnethon may be another form of the name Ginnethoi.

... of Miniamin

The people who made the copies of Hebrew text mistakenly left out the name of the leader of the family of Miniamin. Translators may supply a footnote explaining this. The ULB uses "..." to show that the name of the leader is missing. AT: "Someone was the leader of Miniamin"

Moadiah

Maadiah may be another form of the name Moadiah.
