Thanks, and yes, these could be the objects in question.  They certainly
are in the right neighborhood.  I'm a little disappointed that
Uranometria doesn't list these objects.  They are obviously within reach
of an amateur's film image, so I would have hoped they would be in this
work.  I am curious as to where you located them - is there a published
chart that includes these objects?

Sincerely,
