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.

am I right in reading the handwritten label as Rev Gough?!

[oldnick]

I have taken the liberty of changing entry to Thomas Gough, based on similar sheets, eg http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/280974/ where the label is on the same pink paper (Church Times margin??) in same handwriting, and West has written in the full name. All the other Hovinham collections are by H Ibbotson (different writing); Thomas Gough has about a dozen specimens from this time in Herb West; whereas there are no Rev Gough specimens on H@H.
