county not stated on label, but another sheet shows Helsby collected here at this time

I now can't trace such a sheet. However, H S Thompson had collections of this species from this site, and Helsby corresponded and exchanged various specimens with H S Thompson around this time

Have now found http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/358527/ same place and date Helsby
