IC 3226 is probably just the star at Wolf's position. But there is another star about 20 arcsec to the southwest that may be involved with the object, too. Unfortunately, this is one of Wolf's objects for which his ink marks have been removed from his plate, so we can only verify that the stars are in fact present on it, not which one -- or both -- he meant to be his nebula.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
