Sextus Subrius Dexter, tribune of a cohort in the Praetorian Guard in AD 69, went into the Guard's camp with his fellow tribunes, Cetrius Severus and Pompeius Longinus, to determine whether they would be loyal to Galba or intended to mutiny. In 74, he was governor of Sardinia. He may have been the brother of Subrius Flavus, and perhaps is the same Sextus Subrius Dexter mentioned in an inscription from Patavium, dating to the first half of the second century.[3][4][5][6][7]
Lucius Subrius Felix, buried at Ostia in Latium, aged thirty-six, in a third-century tomb dedicated by his wife, Laelia Quinta.[8]
Subrius Flavus or Flavius, tribune of a cohort in the Praetorian Guard during the reign of Nero, was an active member of the Pisonian conspiracy, and proposed to slay the emperor with his own hand. When he was betrayed by one of his co-conspirators, he denied the charges at first, then took responsibility, and went to his death proudly. It was rumoured that he had planned to kill Piso as well, and offer the empire to the philosopher Seneca.[9][10][11][12][13]
Titus Subrius Hyginus, dedicated a tomb at Nemausus in Gallia Narbonensis for his wife, Epidia Hedone, the freedwoman of Peculiaris.[14]
