[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Tutschin

[Jerry Frank]

Yes, that's correct Chris.

It's not a misspelling but rather an alternate spelling.  Tuczyn is as transliterated directly from Cyrillic;  Tutschin is the Germanic spelling of how it is pronounced.

Similarly, Luck is spelled Lutzk in German records / maps.
