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.

Very difficult to read the names and very little information on the sheet

Hi Tom,

I think this must be W. Skelhorne, Sept. 1849 collected in Formby.

There is a W. Skelhorne who collected in the Liverpool area in the 19th century. I'm guessing it's the same person. There's even a Skelhorne Street in Liverpool. My five year old daughter, Maisie, has just asked me to put this smiley face on. I wonder if it will work?

I hope that helps.
