Life
Holy Martyr Marcellinus of Tomis, a tribune, died for Christ together with his wife, Mannea, and their sons John, Serapion and Peter. They are commemorated in the Roman Martyrology on 27 August (new style), as martyrs of Tomis, a city on the Pontus Euxinus (today Constanța, in Dobruja).
The text of the martyrology gives no details about how they suffered. The whole family confessed Christ and received the crown of martyrdom together. He should not be confused with Marcellinus, the brother of Argeus and Narcissus, commemorated on 2 January.
