IC 619 is UGC 5735. Swift's description of the three stars following the galaxy was summarized by Dreyer in IC1. In full, it reads: "A p l (sic) triangle of 3 F sts nr f, one a vF D." The "vF D" is indeed one of the stars southeast of the galaxy. A somewhat fainter star follows the double by 2.5 arcmin, and turns Swift's stars into an even more striking asterism.
Swift's position is therefore off by +19 seconds and -20.0 arcmin.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
