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.

'Horley'? the style of date suggests a continental collection - by 'C'?

I've just processed sheet 112600 and noticed the similarity of the letters 'H' on it and here. Collector given there was Nathaniel John Winch who liked to abbraviate county names, e.g. Nb = Northumberland. Could this be him and 'C' be Cumberland?

[oldnick]

Winch's dates were 1768 - 1838

'Horten is a town and municipality in Vestfold county, Norway—located along the Oslofjord' - Wikipedia. Label not very legible, but Collett collected from Drammen in the same area 2 weeks later
