If I have the identification correct, this is GSC 3551-2304, listed as a "nonstar" (meaning merged or double or flaw superposed etc in the GSC scans) at coordinates: 19 25 20.68 +49 21 23.7 (2000, Tycho-2). The Tycho-2 photometry suggests it is moderately red (early-K giant?). Note the position difference with what was reported. There is a fainter pair not far from the position given, but it is much fainter and the companion is on the northeast rather than northwest. \Brian
