Any help with figuring out where "Djtoma" is would be appreciated. My great-aunt's naturalization papers list her birthplace and last residence as "Djtoma, Russia". Her brother, my grandfather, listed his birthplace as "Valene, Russia." I am assuming the "Valene" reference is to Vohlynia Gubierna. The arriving ship manifest for my great-aunt and grandfather list in cursive writing "Ztomia", "Zhtoria" or "Zhtovia". Any thoughts?
Thanks
