Fabricia Gens
The gens Fabricia was a plebeian family of ancient Rome. Members of this gens are known from the early third century BC down to the end of the Republic, but they seldom attained positions of importance in the Roman state.''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor. Origin The Fabricii seem to have belonged originally to the Hernician town of Aletrium, where Fabricii occur as late as the time of Cicero. The first Fabricius who occurs in history is the celebrated Gaius Fabricius Luscinus, who distinguished himself in the war against Pyrrhus, and who was probably the first of the Fabricii who left his native place and settled at Rome. We know that in 306 BC, shortly before the war with Pyrrhus, most of the Hernician towns revolted against Rome, but were subdued and compelled to accept the Roman franchise without suffrage. But three towns, Aletrium, Ferentinum, and Verulae, which had remained faithful to Rome, were allowed to retain their form ...

Alexander Carpenter
Alexander Carpenter, Latinized as ''Fabricius'' (''fl.'' 1429), was the author of the ''Destructorium viciorum'', a religious work popular in the 15th and 16th centuries. Some published editions of the work bear the author's name as "''Alexander Anglus''" ("Alexander the Englishman"), but he is further identified in a 1496 edition which states that the work was compiled "''a cuiusdam fabri lignarii filio''" -- "by a certain son of a worker of wood," ''i.e.'', a carpenter's son. This identifier also states that the work was begun in 1429, which rules out authorship by Alexander of Hales (''ca.'' 1185-1245) which had by some scholars been considered a possibility. Alexander Carpenter authored other works, termed ''Homiliae eruditae'' ("Learned Sermons"), but they are not at present known. Carpenter is thought by some to have been a follower of the English theologian John Wycliffe John Wycliffe (; also spelled Wyclif, Wickliffe, and other variants; 1328 – 31 December 1384) ...
