Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah son of Amaziah
on 1 Chronicles 4:34-43
The leaders named here took their growing families to the entrance of Gedor in search of pasture. In the days of Hezekiah they destroyed the Hamites who had lived there. Five hundred went on to Mount Seir and struck down the remnant of the Amalekites who had escaped.

Ziza son of Shiphi
Ziza's line is traced back five generations to Shemaiah, the longest pedigree in the list. The thirteenth leader closes the register. The next verse says what these leaders did as their families grew.
