Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to determine the chronology of Morozeni village from Orhei district and the borders within it appeared and developed. Because of the lack of direct documents, the author used for the purpose of the research the genealogical history of Danciu-Durac family, which are considered to be the founders of villages Isacova and Morozeni according to the document from 9th December 1725. That occurred as a result of the marriage between Danciu (1572-1574), the pîrcălab of Orhei, with Buna, the daughter of Roman Morozanu, the owner of the estate of Morozeni contemporary village. The marriage of Danciu’s daughter, Marica, with the Stahor Durac, the pîrcălab of Orhei (1589), resulted in the creation of the lineage Morozanu-Danciu-Durac. According to the documents from 22nd May 1604 and 3rd March 1805 the families Morozanu and Durac had appeared in Orhei district with a beneficence document from the times of Ştefan cel Mare. It indicates that Morozeni village had appeared in that period as well (1457-1504), between the villages: Cula, Răut – N-W-N; v. Rublinca – E; rv Vatici – S; v. Dişcova – W and preserved, with a few changes, the same borders until the present.
