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.

N.B. several Wiltons but near where? Ross Herefordshire, Roxburghshire?

[Chris Liffen]

Wilton near Ross
the funny squiggle before the s is, in fact, a double S - so Ross

The handwriting and locality of this "WHP" make him the Rev W H Purchas of 'Flora of Herefordshire' by Purchas & Ley.
