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.

unclear could be Nioip or Ihoi?

'Cumberland' is in fact Cleveland; see my recent post regarding Scirpus sylvaticus. The date is 7mo - septimo, i.e. seventh (month) or July - 1852. The 'WM' stands for William Mudd.
Try googling 'Pinching Thorpe' and you get Pinchinthorpe near Guisborough in Cleveland.
The label says "ponds near", not 'near ponds'.
