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.

That seems most likely, and of course George Johnston of whom Kent & Allen says many of his VC 67, 68, 81 specimens were in the Berwick Herbarium.
