#family lineage
- Ambroci (surname) — A Romanian proper family name, predominantly used in the geographical area of Moldavia and the Republic of Moldova. Etymologically, it is a hypocoristic variant or derived through popular suffixation from the given name Ambrozie (of Greek origin, 'Ambrosios', meaning 'immortal' or 'divine'), reflecting how historical Christian first names transformed into stable administrative patronymics.
- Angheni (Toponym) — A regional onomastic form, a variant of a family plural or a microtoponym derived from the name Anghene or Anghel, used in the historical Romanian space to denote a small community, a lineage, or a village hearth owned by members of the same family. From a linguistic perspective, it represents a structural element of geographical and genealogical identification, preserved in old censuses and cadastral maps of historical interest.
- Ascendants — Persons from whom another is directly descended by birth, representing the previous generations of a family (parents, grandparents, great-grandparents); ancestors or forebears. In civil and inheritance law, they are classified into privileged ascendants (parents) and ordinary ascendants (grandparents, great-grandparents), having specific legal rights to the deceased's estate.
