I think that's one of Kojien's typical old-fashioned meanings, and it's probably lost that 
meaning in modern Japanese. Maybe mention it in the context of someone in the household.

koj: 家の内のもの。妻子眷属。特に、妻あるいは召使い。
daijr: 同じ家で一緒に生活している人。家族。

That does appear to be the case but I note that koj includes 召使い (servant) in its definition. I think it's worth adding as a gloss. The meaning isn't restricted to family members.
