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.

collector C L not idntified; nor which Lismore Castle

[oldnick]

I would now say Harry Corbyn Levinge; at this time he seems to have lived at Knock Drin Castle, Westmeath. Though a profusive collector, he has only 20 specimens from 1870-90

CL = Rev Clement Ley, Augustin's brother.

Lismore Castle, Waterford?

[oldnick]

I hadn't been aware of Clement Ley, and see from another post of yours that he was rector of Ashby Parva, Leics - from where I see A Ley has 22 specimens on various dates; and at least 70 from Leics generally. I see Castle Avenue, Lismore, Waterford, on the map, but unfortunately haven't found any info about the Avenue specifically
