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.

I would be happier if someone else confirmed the collectors for specimens 3 to 5 H@H numbers

[Roger Horton]

To avoid confusion going with the numbering on the labels:

(12-14) Joseph Woods by handwriting and date style: Lizard 5/8/1852 *
(3-4) Holyhead, William Borer, no date
(5-11) Joseph Woods again: St Bee's Head 18/7/1835

JW dates generally run two-digit-year, month, day.

* this has a note: 'filaments attached within the cor. tube', what follows may read 'F T 1880 May', i.e. a later addition

[dawn nelson]

I thought it might have been woods too but have noticed the similarity between his and Borrer's script before and though these might also have been Borrer. But if you are sure I will edit accordingly.

[Roger Horton]

Well I'm never completely sure but Woods collected on the Lizard 4/8/1852 and was in Cornwall most of that month, and on 16/7/1835 he collected on Striding Edge Helvellyn, and was in the Lake District for the latter part of July.
