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.

Specimen 2 Bjoberg is a small hut near the usjoane lake in Buskarud county,[8'11'00 E 60'56'00 N] this is the only place that seems to fit the name, if wrong please say?

William Gardiner was rather interesting - started off as an umbrella maker

NB : a date is given on his label.

Thanks , Mea culpa. I got tied into the place name.

I think the Norwegian location is correct at Bjoberg Hemsedal where there is now even a web-cam! The style of the date with the 22 written above the 6 as in fractions, then the two-digit year suggests Robert Collett, as does the letter C which may be intended as his second initial (cf sheet 368719).
