Kogălniceanu family

The Kogălniceanus' ancestral home was in the Moldavian subregion of Bessarabia, more specifically in Lăpuşna County, on the shores of the eponymous Cogalnic (Kogâlnic) River.

Originally Bessarabian peasants, the first Kogălniceanus accumulated wealth and, as owners of the Scrivulenii (Râpile) estate, climbed into the boyar elite.
