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.

Any suggestions re site Field S of Walton 'K Hth 6a [???]' I found no other Beeby specimens close to this date

I think that either Beeby or E S Marshall will have lived in or near Walton but I can't find out either which of them or which bit of Walton except that it is in Surrey! Searching on 'Beeby' and 'Walton' brings up a couple of dozen Beeby sheets from Walton on Thames but I haven't checked them to make sure they are right.
There is no place of birth or death of Beeby on Meiosis.

I couldn't spot 'K Heath' on the map - maybe built over? but the site and 6a are evidently near Epsom, see http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/331339/
