Supplementary Notes 

The RA and dec are from Samus et al. (2009).

The periods and classifications for V1 and V3, the two Mira variables, 
are from Sloan et al. (2010) who published K band light curves. The B
magnitudes and amplitudes for these stars are from Kinman & Rosino (1962).

The periods, magnitudes, amplitudes and variability types for V2, V4 and
V5 are from Kinman & Rosino (1962).

They assumed that all of the variables were cluster members.  Their
magnitudes were appropriate for cluster membership and were located 
well inside the tidal radius which is 21.6 arcmin according to the 
2010 update to the Harris (1996) catalogue.

Barbuy et al. (1998) published a BV colour-magnitude diagram that
showed a prominent red HB, characteristic of a metal rich population.  
Cote (1999) later derived [Fe/H] = -0.75 from the equivalent widths of 
iron lines in 5 RG stars considered to be cluster members on the basis 
of their radial velocities.

  V1
    Sawyer Hogg (1959) with ID chart
    The cluster was referred to as IC 1276 in her paper.

  V2-5
    Kinman & Rosino (1962) with x,y positions and ID chart for V1-5
    The cluster was referred to as Abell 7 = IC 1276 in their paper.
