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 - bottom label is evidently written by James Edward Winterbottom see http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/297841/ ex herb; this style of printed sheet seems invariably Mrs F S Bennett.

I don't think the handwriting on the Sidlaw Hills labels is the same as on the Winterbottom label. However some other anonymous F S Bennett sheets from Scotland around this period do have the same handwriting as this sheet. The writing is similar to that of Gardiner, Croall, Kerr etc, but not the same.
