History
The most prominent members were the Hurmuzachi brothers. Their father was Doxachi Hurmuzachi, who eventually re-acquired Cernăuca after the documents of the ownership of the estate by the family had been lost and built a new boier palace and church and planted park there. Doxaki married Iuliana Murguleț, daughter of a Romanian boier, and they had 12 children, of whom 7 survived: the five brothers and two sisters, Eufrozina and Eliza.Doxaki was son of Constantin Hurmuzachi, who held the rank of medelnicer, and his wife, Roksana, both from the Principality of Moldavia.
