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.

If the Collector I can't make out the initials/name, if it be that, half way down on right of blue slip... W Mays? Any ideas?

?naturalised ?? W. Ross (i.e. VC 105)

but the following words look to me like 'Hugh Town' which implies Scilly Islands.

[David Price]

"St Mary's"

Many thanks both - Yep: "Naturalised, St Mary's, Hugh Town" fits a lot better than my way off first shot. Amended.
