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.

Evidently the same mystery collector as
http://herbariaunited.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3774
Comparison with http://herbariaunited.org/sheets/BIRM/4637.jpg
shows the collector to be Heath (of course!) but no clue as to the County, since Wheelbarrow Castle can be either Heref or Warw, neither of which seem to have a 'Buttermilk'

See Wheelbarrow Castle, Warwicks, SP265315
and Buttermilk Cottage, Oxfords, SP423325

These and a few other records for September & October 1941 are all within striking distance of Chipping Norton and suggest that DMH was 'at large' in the area.
