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.

...... Ferry, Devon? Search of Hore's sheets gave no clue. He collected from S Devon, though not this year, and not from N Devon

Yealm Ferry?

[oldnick]

I'm sure you are right. Yealm Ferry not on modern map, but the Yealm being a small river with a broad estuary makes location clear; even though not very close to other Hore locations
