Lieut. Cruttenden applies the term Edoor (Aydur) to the descendants of Ishak, the children of Gerhajis{ismail}, Awal, and Jailah. His informants and mine differ, therefore, toto coelo. According to some, Dirr was the father of Aydur; others make Dirr (it has been written Tir and Durr) to have been the name of the Galla family into which Shaykh Ishak married.
edoor
To make a long story short, ethnically, the Dabacayuun (Isaaq) belongs to the Dir clan family. Of the four main Dir branches, the Dabacayuun belongs to Mohamed Maha Dir. Other Maha Dir sub-clans include Biyomal, Bajimal and Quranyob. The other Dir clan families in the north are the Gadabursi and Issa, who belong to Madax-Wayne and Madobe Dir, respectively. The Dadacayuun is divided into three main sub-clans namely: Garhajis (Habar Yonis, Ida-Gale and Arap), Habar Awal and Habar Jelo.
