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.

This handwriting looks 'Victorian' and I read this date as June 8th/95 so 8/6/1895. Several collectors (e.g. Thomas Bruges Flower, Miss Martha Maria Atwood, and Mr Thomas Clark) were in N Somerset in 1895 and have similar handwriting. Sorry, not much help!
