 They intermarried with the Dadiani of Mingrelia, the Gurieli of Guria, and the Bagrationi of Kakheti and of Imereti.With the death of Giorgi Mkheidze (1795–1856), the princely branch of the Imeretian Chkheidze became extinct in their male line.The surviving Chkheidze descend from the gentry (aznauri) line as well as the princely one established in Mingrelia in the first half of the 18th century.
