Rashi, on Neh 12:12

“And in the days of Joacim the priests and heads of the families were: Of Saraia, Maraia: of Jeremias, Hanania:”

“And in the days of Joiakim who was the high priest. These priests were the leaders of the fathers’ houses of their watches. of Seraiah was Meraiah Of the watch of Seraiah, the head of the father’s house was Meraiah, and of the watch of Jeremiah, the head of the father’s house was Hananiah, and so it is with them all, and the reason Scripture did not list all twenty-four watches is that it is not exacting in enumerating them all.”
