I'd appreciate any help with my last two clues, please.

21 Down Plague interrupting side-branch in poet's ancestry. -YNAGE . I assume this must be LYNAGE but I'm not sure why.

9 Down Caught in police trap, worried blokes getting time-it indicates special needs. S-ATE-E-TI-G. It looks like it must be STATEMENTING but again I'm not sure why.

Thanks in advance for any explanations.

Thank you both so much. I never feel like I've properly completed a puzzle unless I can explain how I arrived at my answer.
