Kal. Nov. ‡ M. Octavio L. Sulla (II) cos. ‡ MMDCCLV a.u.c., Censor Lucius Equitius Cincinnatus published a message on the main list detailing the order in which the original gentes of Nova Roma had been created. Here is that list, with the names of the original citizens added:
On the 21 of April (the birthday of Roma)1998 @ 10:54 AM the order was thus:

- 2. Gens Cassia
- Marcus Cassius Iulianus - Pater Patriae; twice Consul; Censor

- 29. Gens Claudia
- 30. Gens Caecilia Metella *The original plebian gens*

- 31. Gens Portia
These were the original Patrician Gens, of course some of them were one person gens that became extinct when the "paterfamilias" resigned. They were replaced as time went along. Thus we now have Africana Secunda, Annaea, Antonia, Fabia, Grylla, Minucia, Nigra, Tullia, Ulleria as Patrician Gens.
