Justinowka is located about 14 km due south of Pulin. Pulin today is
known as Tscherwonoarmisk. I suspect that Juotinske is a misspelling of
Justinowka but would have to see the original to get a better idea.
Your family does not appear to be in the Lutheran records. Perhaps they
were Baptist? If so, your research may be difficult because records are
not readily available.
