His Imperial Majesty, Lord of the Universe, Caesar Augustus divii fillius, Dominus Noster : "Sammy"

edit

I'm no expert but I think that the (apparently unrelated to any other Emperor) Emperor "Sammy" (reigned 423-425 in the 284-518 section) cannot be any thing else than a joke.

Possibly meant to refer to the usurper John who "reigned" in Africa from 423 to 424. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.234.152.230 (talk) 07:06, 19 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Additional familial connections

edit

I do not know how to edit templates, but I encourage adding the following:

  • Galba married Aemilia Lepida, daughter of Manius Aemilius Lepidus, son of Marcus Aemilius Lepidus the Younger, who married a descendant of Pompey.
  • Pertinax married Flavia Titiana, whose maternal grandfather was Titus Flavius Titianus, a third son of Flavia Domitilla, the daughter of Domitilla the Younger, the only daughter of Vespasian.
  • Elagabalus's wife Annia Faustina’s great grandfather was Marcus Aurelius and her grandmother was Faustina the Younger.
  • According to the Augustan History, Gordian I's wife was a Roman woman called Fabia Orestilla, born circa 165, who the Augustan History claims was a descendant of Roman Emperors Antoninus Pius as his great-granddaughter and Marcus Aurelius through her father Fulvus Antoninus.
  • It has been conjectured that Balbinus is descended from Publius Coelius Balbinus Vibullius Pius, the consul ordinarius of 136 or 137, and wife Aquilia. If true, he was also related to the family of Q. Pompeius Falco, which supplied many politicians of consular rank throughout the third century, and to the 1st-century politician, engineer and author Julius Frontinus, as well as a descendant of a first cousin of Trajan.
  • Pupienus's grandson, Lucius Clodius Tineius Pupienus Bassus, was a direct descendant of Augustus on his mother’s side.
  • Tranquillina's daughter with Gordian III, Furia, married Marcus Maecius Orfitus, son of Pupiena Sextia Paulina Cethegilla, daughter of Marcus Pupienus Africanus, son of his protector Emperor Pupienus Maximus.
