A person could be redeemed by his brother, uncle, uncle's son, or anyone 'nigh of kin':-
Lev 25:48-49 KJV After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of his brethren may redeem him: [v. 49] Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or any that is nigh [near] of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he be able, he may redeem himself.
'Near of kin' meant any family member:-
Lev 21:2 KJV But for his kin, that is near unto him, that is, for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,
Because the archaic word 'kin' can be confusing, a modern translation which doesn't use the word 'kin' or 'near of kin' clarifies the meaning:-
Lev 25:48-49 NET after he has sold himself he retains a right of redemption. One of his brothers may redeem him, [v. 49] or his uncle or his cousin may redeem him, or anyone of the rest of his blood relatives - his family - may redeem him, or if he prospers he may redeem himself.
In summary, a kinsman redeemer can be any blood relative, and they do not have to be male.

The English translation "kinsman redeemer" only appears six times in the Bible. All of these occurences are in the hyphonated form, and all of them appear in chapters 3 and 4 of the book of Ruth in the Hebrew Scriptures. The same Hebrew form appears in Leviticus regarding inheritance of possessions; in Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, and 2 Samuel regarding restitution for wrong; and in Isaiah regarding the redemption of the Lord. Only the Ruth passages, however translate the Hebrew form as "kinsman-redeemer".
