Corwin's Notes
=====
NGC 4095. The RC3 position is from MCG. GSC has 12 03 21.05 +20 51 03.6
(1950) for this galaxy. The relatively small difference in position normally
wouldn't matter to the identification, but the galaxy is in a fairly compact
group with five other NGC objects. Four of the six galaxies are in RC3, and
as far as I can tell with a quick check of MCG, UGC, and CGCG, the data for
each have been assigned correctly.
This is also the second of the three objects that WH found (III 383). The
first is NGC 4092 (which see), and the third is NGC 4098 = NGC 4099 (also
which see). Dreyer reassigned WH's numbers in the 1912 Scientific Papers,
getting this one and III 384 correct.
Also see NGC 4055.
