Editing Pliny the Younger (section)

===Marriages===
Pliny the Younger married three times: first, when he was very young (about 18), to a stepdaughter of Veccius Proculus, who died at age 37; secondly, at an unknown date, to the daughter of Pompeia Celerina; and thirdly to Calpurnia who was 14 at the time and 26 years younger than Pliny, daughter of Calpurnius and granddaughter of [[Calpurnius Fabatus]] of Comum. Letters survive in which Pliny recorded this last marriage taking place, his attachment to Calpurnia, and his sadness when she miscarried their child at the age of 17.<ref>{{cite book|last=Pliny|title=Letters|pages=8.10}}</ref>
