Later, the name 'Wiiseeks, a name belonging to the same royal Gispwudwada (Killerwhale clan) house-group (extended matrilineal family) as 'Alamlaxha and Txagaaxs, became the leading name.
McMillan bequeathed the name to a sister's son, who died in 1935 and was succeeded by his brother, a previous holder of 'Alamlaxha.
Garfield has described how in 1929 a holder of the name 'Alamlaxha held a potlatch feast at which a flagpole was erected in lieu of a totem pole, in an attempt to move away from traditional forms.
It was headed at the time by Mark Luther, who held the name Midiiks and was a key informant during Garfield's fieldwork.
However, well before Robert Sampson died he adopted his three children into the house; William, Matilda, and Elizabeth.
