"`Caesar,' the name of a patrician family of the Julian Gens, traces its origin
to Julius, the son of Aeneas. The second wife of Aeneas was Lavinia. Their
son, Silvius Posthumus, was the progenitor of the Latin kings down to Romulus,
who with Remus was the founder of Rome. Aeneas m. (1) Creusa. Their son was
Ascanius, the Trojan. He was the progenitor of the Julius Juli. His son was
Julus, who being deprived of succeeding his father in the kingdom of Latium was
made High Priest, which office continued in his family down to Julius Caesar,
the Dictator. His descendants are     for about 560 years . . . until
about the reign of Tarquinius Superbus, when we read of Numerius Julius Julus,
who claimed descent from Julus, the son of Ascanius, the son of Aeneas. [Then,
in order from father to son, come] Lucius Julius Julus, Caius Julius Julus,
Caius Julius Julus, Caius Julius Julus, Lucius Julius Julus, a military tribune
with consular authority, Lucius Julius Julus, a military tribune with consular
authority [then three generations whose names are not known, then Lucius Julius
