Keșco (Russian: Кешко) or Keșcu, was a Moldavian noble family. It was first mentioned in the 17th century. Members of the family served the Russian Empire in the Bessarabia Governorate (1812–1917). Kesco family shared same roots as Counts Wassilko von Serecki. According to family history both families have descended from Rurik dynasty, in particular from the Wassilko, Prince of Rostov († 1238).
