Agrippa, Marcus Vipsanius, born in B.C. 63, of an obscure family, studied with young Octavius (afterward the Emperor Augustus) at Apollonia in Illyria ; and upon the murder of Caesar in 44, was one of the friends of Octavius, who advised him to proceed immediately to Rome.
He was the son-in-law of the Emperor Augustus, maternal grandfather of the Emperor Caligula, father-in-law of the Emperor Tiberius and the Emperor Claudius, and maternal great-grandfather of the Emperor Nero.
