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.

Label gives 'Mrs Renolds' but uniform with sheets of 'Miss Reynolds' eg http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/388444/?image - though to me 'Mrs Reynolds' looks correct

Mrs K. M. Reynolds should come up in the pick-list. Kent & Allen says of her "fl. 1928. K 250 (v.cc. 10 & 70)" suggesting that she has ~250 specimens at Kew collected Isle of Wight and Cumberland. Bulletin of Miscellaneous Information (Kew) 1929 says that she presented plants from GB.

Perhaps :-

Katharine Marion (Marian) Reynolds, Darnley Road, Notting Hill, London
Born 1855. Died 1932.

She illustrated "Flowers and trees of Palestine" by Augusta Temple.

Thanks, I think it will be worth revising the 13 'Miss Reynolds' specimens, 2 of which are from IoW, the others from Cumberland, most date 1926-27.
