CdC and Stellarium don't have everything cataloged. PGC260239 happens to be the closest object.
This object is about half way between PGC260239 and TYC9140-413-1. A Unimap plate solve puts it at 00:24:43.920-72:47:49.985. Vizier says those are within .25 arcmin of the coords of Kron 3, as suggested by Mark and Andy.
