Can anyone please help me make sense of this mess?

I'm trying to establish which of several villages a family lived in and I don't speak much Polish (and no Russian).

Unfortunately, there are four villages with almost the same name. Krasienin, Krasienin-Kolonia, Wola Krasieninska and Krasieninski

Unfortunately, I have only one clue, and it's been translated from Russian. A translator over 100 years ago translated the name of the family's local village school as "Krasseminsk". Lublin area being under Russian rule at that time. My question is, does this "-minsk" ending mean that they lived in Wola Krasieninska or Krasieninski? Or could it still be any one of the other villages?
