Scipio Nasica Corculum was her husband and second cousin. She had a single child. Judging by the year her son, Scipio Nasica Serapio, became consul in 138 BCE she probably married around 184-183 BCE.
Cornelia Africana Major had three siblings. They were Publius Cornelius P.f. P.n. Scipio Africanus (fl. 174 BC), Lucius Cornelius P.f. P.n. Scipio (fl. 174 BC), and Cornelia Africana Minor (c.192-121 BC).

Famous quotes containing the word major:
“Our basic ideas about how to parent are encrusted with deeply felt emotions and many myths. One of the myths of parenting is that it is always fun and games, joy and delight. Everyone who has been a parent will testify that it is also anxiety, strife, frustration, and even hostility. Thus most major parenting- education formats deal with parental emotions and attitudes and, to a greater or lesser extent, advocate that the emotional component is more important than the knowledge.”
