N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

I have deleted the 1896 date as I believe it to be a herbarium date, not that of collecting.

I agree with you about the dates on the lower corner of these Mrs Bennett sheets, those I've seen are 1890s whereas she mostly collected in the 1870s.

Desmond notes a F S Bennett - fl. 1860's - 1890's. Based In Farnworth. Searching the census returns indicates that a possible candidate is Fanny Smallman Hancock, who married Irwin Arthur Bennett, in September 1879. They lived in Chorlton on Medlock, then Great Lever, Manchester and then Manchester Road, Bolton in 1901. He seems to have been a bank manager.
