Thanks Paddy.
Your chart 6 going clockwise on 4 corners of the cross or box depending on how you view it would be HN 36, L40, K29 and then what looks like two bright clots/tight clusters with a faint nebulosity for the 4th NE corner. This mystery bright spot of two stars on the chart is half way between HN 37 (which I did not note) and L46 which I had noted as a 5th object in that central area.

I suspect what I saw was not significant enough to be considered an object.

Well done and thanks for solving the mystery of the 4 other of 5 that I had noted.

For me it is the LMC that stands alone as the king of the southern areas of course with all the wonderfully complex nebulous shapes not even counting the tarantula who watches over its wealth of smaller objects in the LMC.
