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.

The current h@h specimens of S Hailstone 1767-1851 are from Yorkshire, where he lived, so no clue as to which Yarmouth. Another S Hailsone of the picklist, with similar dates, has no specimens

Samuel Hailstone senior (1767-1851) outlived his son Samuel Hailstone junior (1812-1841). Kent & Allen, the book, says that the specimens collected by the son were incorporated in the father's herbarium.
