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.

Collector of spec 1&2 assumed to be Townsend. No clear date for spec 2, although could be 5/1850

[Tom Humphrey]

I think you're right about the date (5/1850)

There's a description of Ilsam Farm here.
