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.

(cf. http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/230366/ and http://herbariaunited.org/specimensearch/?taxon=&taxonid=&collector=G+Robson&colid=924&role=prov&from=&to=&search=search&Country=gbie&VC=all&place=&placeid=&Inst=all&search=search#searchlist)
but no mention of him in Britten & Boulger. A C20th Flora of Leicestershire may well contain biographical details. He was very likely a member of the Leicester Literary and Philosophical Society judging by his association with F T Mott.
