Toman Families Videos

The video clips below include members of multiple Toman families, not just the Francis Toman family. They were usually taken at celebrations or picnic gatherings and mostly filmed by Francis Toman (1921-1965) using an 8mm camera without audio. Because these videos were recorded without an audio track, Tom Marchisa added his own audio tracks. Make sure to turn your speakers on !!

Videos can be viewed in 2 different sizes:

Original (640px X 388px) … This is the size on this screen.
When you click the PLAY button below, the video will play in this original size.
Large (Depends on your screen size) … If you click on the “Full Screen” control in the lower right corner, a “Full Screen” size will be displayed.
