Dale Lee Wahl's Long German Russian Village List seems to come to the same
conclusion as Jerry (that Karolinka and Karolinowka are the same place).

  Frank,

  It might help to know the village name just before the Karolinowka entry
as this might provide an indication of which direction the pastor was
traveling as he collected the information.

  I see two possibilities for this.  Others might have other suggestions.

  1.  As the pastor made his rounds, he stopped at one of the several
Karolinowka and then returned to Zhitomir.  On his next trip, he started at
Heimtal.

  2.  Place names like Karolinka and Karolinowka sometimes get confused or
written down incorrectly.  There is a Karolinka about 15 km north of
Heimtal.

  Jerry
