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.

Was this collector a Rev? It looks here as though Painter has corrected rev to Rec??

"However, circumstances were such that he undertook a curacy at Barbon in Westmoreland. It was here that he met (Rev) Robert Wood (also listed in the H@H database), who introduced him to botanical studies."
and to quote David
"This is the B&B entry for Wood -
Wood, Rev. Robert (1796-1883): b. Tallentire, Cockermouth, 18 Dec. 1796; d. Westward, Wigton, 15 Mar. 1883. Incumbent of Westward, 1822-83. ' AlcJiemilla conjuncta,' Journ. Bot. 1872, 308. Had a herbarium. Journ. Bot. 1.883, 380. B.S.C. viii. 1268. Fl. Cumb. xxvii.

Googling him turns up a number of references. He was born, exercised his ministry and died within a very small radius."
