NGC/IC Project Restoration Effort

===== NGC 2351. There is nothing in JH's position, but one degree north is a group of three bright and several faint stars that could be the object he saw. In particular, JH says "A loose straggling cl. Place of a D *." There is no double star within 15 arcmin of his nominal position, but in the group of stars to the north, there is one. And just to complicate the possibilities further, I've noticed a "loose straggling cl" with a double star in it just about 40 seconds of time preceding JH's position. I've included both of these in the table. Other possibilities: this object may be a duplicated observation of NGC 2343 or NGC 2353, though neither one has a position with an obvious digit change that might point to NGC 2351.
