 * weakest of keeps I found some evidence this person exists So that would seem to imply passing WP:NPOL as he would be a holder of statewide/province office, although there isn't a time range on the applicability of that guideline....  There are some other hits on google books like this one which gives the same date as this article but basically explicitly states nothing is known save the name.  Strong candidate for merging with other governors of Britannia Inferior if they have articles due to lack of notability individually... Sailsbystars (talk) 01:52, 5 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep Here is discussion in The Archaeological Journal in 1883 explaining how the years of his service was narrowed down.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  04:17, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - Just there are some sources here which qualify. Squareanimal (talk) 14:11, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep The standard work for Roman Britain would be Anthony R. Birley, "The Roman Government of Britain" OUP 2005. He covers Claudius Xenophon on 345-6. There are apparently three inscriptions (two more or less identical milestones and a Vindolanda inscription) that mention him. I'll correct the article this weekend if nobody else does.
