Hi,
I was born in Grodno and lived there for about 25 years but I have never heard about Worotna. My guess, it is a small village, may be very small. And may be it does not exist anymore because your info relates to time before WW2, and as you probaly know the biggest part of Belarus was almost totally destroyed during ww2. It could burnt down, or it may be is so small today that there are only few houses left. In this case you won't be able to locate it on the mape.
Ethimology of name Worotna - something relating to the 'Gate'.

Good luck!

Luba.
