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.
