IT'S COMMON IN RUSSIA for villages with the same or similiar names to be near each other, which often makes it very difficult to find a location, even for Russians. Among over a dozen possible "Il'inka" listed at Index Mundi, Russia there are 4 villages which are about "350 miles south of Moscow" — about 50° latitude, 38°-42° longitude. The first shown is probably it. The map by MSN Encarta shows this Ilyinka is in south-east Voronezh, Kalach region, about 4 miles north-east of Kalach city and 12 miles from the Volgograd border.



For now we can't say for certain if this is the Ilyinka with Subboniki. The location is vaguely stated: "350 miles south of Moscow..." which could be any on the list above.
