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.

There are three specimens (this one: 326540, plus 359311 and 313367) from Rainham, South Essex, June 1899, in Sherrin's herbarium where a collector Grant, James F Grant, or Miss Grant, is accompanied by another variously recorded as Gresmund, Simond, or William Robert Sherrin [illegible]. In all three cases this might be read as 'Siemond'.
All the labels say just 'Grant'. Note that James F Grant (of "Contributions Towards a Flora of Caithness" 1899) may not have strayed this far from home. Sherrin has another specimen (313680) from Wandsworth Surrey, July 1899, collected by 'E Seemond'. Can anyone please shed light on Sherrin's associates Grant and Siemond?
