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.

How do I find the OS number?
Is this otherwise satisfactory? It is my first attempt.

Welcome.

The google search in the bottom right hand corner of the form will help you with the place name &GR.

Alternatively the Search box is very helpful for cross referencing species, collectors and placenames.

If you select Placenames and enter Walney Island it will tell you the vice county. Unfortunately there's no GR given for Walney Island! So .....

...... if you select Search Specimens and enter Walney Island in the place name you will find all specimens collected there, and at least one has the GR - SD16. You will also notice that the collector of most of those specimens is Rowena M Ferguson (who became the wife of L J Audus) who is the true identity of "R M Fish" (a seemingly self-perpetuating imposter!).
