Open translation for this passage
Φλεγύᾳ δὲ οὐ γενομένων παίδων ἐκδέχεται Χρύσης τὴν ἀρχήν, Χρυσογενείας τε ὢν τῆς Ἄλμου καὶ Ποσειδῶνος.
Χρύσης is the finite subject and ἐκδέχεται takes τὴν ἀρχήν as object; the genitive absolute Φλεγύᾳ ... γενομένων παίδων is concessive/temporal in sense, while Χρυσογενείας ... ὢν is a genitive of lineage. The exact construction of Χρυσογενείας is somewhat elliptical and is annotated as a dependent genitive with ὢν.

τούτῳ δὲ υἱὸς γίνεται τῷ Χρύσῃ Μινύας, καὶ ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ Μινύαι καὶ νῦν ἔτι ὧν ἦρχεν ὀνομάζονται.

πρόσοδοι δὲ ἐγίνοντο τῷ Μινύᾳ τηλικαῦται μέγεθος ὡς ὑπερβαλέσθαι τοὺς πρὸ αὐτοῦ πλούτῳ· θησαυρόν τε ἀνθρώπων ὧν ἴσμεν Μινύας πρῶτος ἐς ὑποδοχὴν χρημάτων ᾠκοδομήσατο.
The first clause has a result construction: τηλικαῦται μέγεθος ... ὡς ὑπερβαλέσθαι. In the second clause, Μινύας is the accusative subject of the infinitive ᾠκοδομήσατο only in the transmitted wording; syntactically it is best treated as an accusative subject/raised subject with ᾠκοδομήσατο interpreted as a finite aorist middle verb, while ἴσμεν is parenthetical relative-clause material. The token ἀνθρώπων is governed by ὧν, with ὧν as a genitive relative pronoun in an elliptical/partitive construction.
