In the 1640s, Lukyan Timofeyevich Golosov served as a clerk. In 1653, he became a deacon in the Patriarchal Razryad for approximately ten years. As a deacon, he worked under Patriarch Nikon and was known for signing important documents, including letters to the Wallachian Voivode Stefan and the Gazan Metropolitan Paisios Ligarid.
Sale of Estate and Translation Work
In 1657, Golosov sold his estate to Patriarch Nikon for the construction of the New Jerusalem Monastery. The sale deed noted the sale of his village of Nikulino along with its church and other structures.
