Flavius Felix (died 430) was a politician of the Western Roman Empire, who reached the prominent rank of patrician before being killed by order of Flavius Aetius. For his consulate, in 428, he issued some consular diptychs, one of which has been preserved until modern times. Felix served during the reign of emperors Valentinian III and Theodosius II. Between 425 (year in which he was made patricius) and 429 he served as magister utriusque militae in defense of Italy, but despite a brief mention of one of his military actions in the Notitia Dignitatum, his subordinates Bonifacius and Flavius Aetius were considered more significant in this regard.[1] In 426 he ordered the death of Patroclus, bishop of Arelate, and of Titus, deacon in Rome. The following year he opposed Bonifacius' rebellion in Northern Africa sending some troops to this province. According to a recent reconstruction of his familiar bonds, he was an ancestor of Felix, Consul in 511. He was a son of Ennodius and he might have been the son of his father who was the husband of a daughter of Flavius Julius Agricola, Consul of Rome in 421 and perhaps the father of Emperor Avitus, being the parents of Flavius Magnus, Consul of Rome in 460 and Felix Ennodius, Proconsul in Africa in ca 420 or 423.He died at Ravenna in 430.

In May 430, Felix, his wife Pandusia and a deacon were accused of plotting against Aetius, arrested in Ravenna and killed by order of Aetius himself. His carved ivory consular diptych is notable for depicting his clothing in great detail. The diptych, believed to be the earliest yet known,[2] survived intact until the French Revolution, when the right leaf was stolen; it is now believed lost.[3]according to a recent reconstruction of his familiar bonds, he was an ancestor of Felix, Consul in 511.

I am gathering from this passage that he was the son of Ennodius b. 380, with Unknown wife b. 385 who was the daughter of Flavius Julius Agricola, Consul of Rome in 421. Flavius Julius Agricola was perhaps the father of Emperor Avitus. Some couple are the parents of Flavius Magnus, Roman consul in 460, and Felix Ennodius, Proconsul in Africa in 420-423.) He died at Ravenna in 430.
