The paper for the first time publishes a white stone tombstone from the Godunov family tomb in the Holy Trinity Ipatiev Monastery (Kostroma). The restored text of the epitaph suggests that it indicates a representative of the Godunov family, the son of Iosif (Asan) Dmitrievich Godunov, who had two secular christian names — the baptismal Nestor and the public, non-baptismal Mikhail, under which he appears in the overwhelming majo- rity of sources. The paper attempts to clarify the time death of Mikhail's / Nestor Godunov and certain considerations are expressed about the possible date of his birth, as well as about his personal heavenly patrons, in whose honor he was named with two Christian names.
