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.

Read as Dr Milne but not clear

I think you are right, and that there are 4 h@h collectors listed who are the same person:
Dr Milne = J Milne = James Milne = James Fairweather Milne.
Someone with the last name was a GP at Boddam, Peterhead, in the 1930s.
