Abstract

The paper analyses the first documents about the landlords that lived in the area of Covurlui. The first family of boyars was that of the Cernats; they were the owners of more than 30 villages and of vast territories in the Northern Covurlui. During the time of Stephen the Great (1457-1504), Steful Cernat was one of the members in the council of the woivod. He bought several more villages, thus increasing his feudal domination.
