Members

• Suedia, buried at Aquae Sirenses in Mauretania Caesariensis, aged eighty-five.
• Lucius Suedius Bassus, one of the municipal duumvirs at Lucus Feroniae in Etruria in the first half of the second century. His colleague was Gaius Masurius Capito.
• Titus Suedius Clemens, a centurion primipilus, and one of the commanders of Otho's expeditionary force against Vitellius in AD 69. Suedius was more concerned with his popularity than with the discipline of the soldiers under his command, who despoiled the villages of Alpes Maritimae. He seems to have survived Otho, and was restored to favour under Vespasian, serving as a judex in Pompeii. In AD 79, Suedius was a praefectus castrorum serving in Egypt.

• Suedia Doris, a freedwoman who, together with Quintus Suedius Communis, probably her husband, dedicated a tomb at Firmum Picenum, dating from the first half of the first century, for their freedman, Syrus, aged eighteen. Another inscription records an offering made by Doris to the gods.
