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.

Not sure about site or century

[Roger Horton]

The site is Beddington Corner, much the same as Beddington but slightly west.

The year must be 1933. When you enter a collector's name successfully a distribution map should open up top right, together with a link in the collector's name. Clicking the name will open up the collector page which often shows life span, and will have a link to a list specimens collected. This list can give a good idea of the collector's habits!

Although Chambers' dates are given as 1870-1932, sorting the list in reverse date order suggests he managed to keep collecting until 1935.
