Normally, someone would not speak this unless they are part of a large family. If you do indeed search up "Dreth" on the Wiki, there's at least five members with the same surname. Though I don't think they actually ever mention themselves, doing a bit of reasearch, I found out that Madsu Dreth lived on Vvanderfell; and Valen Dreth, the one who makes fun of the prisoneer at the start of Oblivion, notes to the Dunmer Male the following words:

"Hey, there! You! Kinsman! I haven't seen another Dunmer in here in I don't know how long. Where you from, huh? Vvardenfell? You got a wife back home? Tell you what. I'm getting out of here in a couple of weeks. When I get back to Morrowind, I'll look her up. She must be so lonely. Don't you worry, eh? I'll take care of her long after you're dead. Oh, that's right. You're going to die in here!"

Thus possibly hinting that he previously lived in Vvanderfell before being imprisoned, which leads to the conclusion that he may be related to Madsu Dreth from Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. Also, as annoying some may find Romlyn, I think he's not just doing a random lie about his ancestry in Valen.

Madsu --> Valen --> Romlyn. And there's also Hloval from Shievering Isles D.L.C., but I don't think he mentions anything about his family.
