Ancestor List for Jim Howes 
This page isn't linked because it contains more private information than the tree view above. You need to be on Jim's Trusted List to access it.
Please login.
Ancestor Explorer [independent app]
View or download a list of up to 20 generations of ancestors who meet a wide variety of criteria, map them, and more.
Compact Family Tree
Packed with eight generations — up to 254 ancestors — along with birth and death dates and locations. The downside is that it's not a conventional tree format; it may take a couple minutes to orient yourself.
Connections
How many degrees of separation are between Jim and Henry VIII (or anyone else)? This Connection Finder includes relationships through marriage, so it is not a genealogical cousin calculator like our Relationship Finder, but it's a fun way to illustrate how closely we're all connected.
Descendant List 
Up to five generations of children and grandchildren of Jim along with their spouses.
DNA Ancestors and DNA Descendants 
Designed to help you use genetic testing to confirm and expand Jim's genealogy. The DNA Ancestors page shows the specific ancestors from whom Jim gets his Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA. Especially helpful for some serious genetic genealogists is the inheritance pattern for Jim's X chromosome, also shown here.
The DNA Descendants link isn't active for privacy reasons.
DNA Ancestor Confirmation Aid 
A step beyond the DNA Ancestors and DNA Descendants views. The ambitious goal: scientific confirmation of each parent-child relationship in Jim's tree.
Dynamic Tree
Expands to include an unlimited number of generations of parents and children. You can zoom in or out and pan around for the perfect view as you browse.
Dynamic Tree by Topola [independent app]
Advanced visualization tools plus downloading and printing capabilities.
Family Group Sheet 
Simple page to illustrate nuclear families based on marriages. Handy when someone had children from more than one marriage.
Jim's Family Group Sheet is not linked for privacy reasons.
Family List
Flexible tool for viewing more ancestors and/or descendants on one page than anywhere else on WikiTree.
Fan Chart [independent app]
Lots of options for display, color, and sharing, including DNA inheritance, print with PDF, and other views such as "Fractal H-Trees" and "Relative SpiderWebs."
Images of Jim 
Photographs and source images for Jim.
They are not linked for privacy reasons.
Index of Howess
Shows all the Howess on WikiTree. Useful for genealogists with an interest in the surname that goes beyond Jim. There are a variety of connected tools, such as Howes DNA Connections and HOWES G2G.
Printer-Friendly Tree 
Parallel to the pedigree chart above but optimized for printing. Can be used as a fill-in-the-blanks form.
It is not linked here because it contains private information.
Profile of Jim
The central place for organizing and viewing information and sources. Whenever you see Jim's name on WikiTree it will be linked to the profile at https://www.WikiTree.com/wiki/Howes-2 where Howes-2 is Jim's unique WikiTree ID.
Since the profile is private you would see significantly more information if you
login and join the Trusted List.
Profile Overview [independent app]
Dig into the contents of WikiTree profiles in a completely different way.
Relationship Finder 
Enter Howes-2 and any other WikiTree ID to find the genealogical relationship between Jim and the other person.
It will name the relationship, e.g. "third cousin twice removed," and show the trail of connections to a common ancestor. Although not everyone on WikiTree shares common ancestors, finding and connecting them is our ultimate goal. See the Relationship Finder Quick Links to check for relationships to US presidents, Mayflower passengers, Magna Carta Sureties and more.
Share Tree on Facebook 
Download and share an attractive family tree image. This is a great way to elicit information and photo sharing from family and old friends. You might be surprised at who replies. The "Wikid Shareable Tree" is another option. You can just copy and paste the URL https://www.wikitree.com/treewidget/Howes-2/4 into your favorite social network.
Surnames 
A quick reference sheet with seven generations of Jim's family names.

Family Tree Widgets 
If you're a blogger who's writing a post about Jim or have a Howes family website or surname website you can include one of these widgets to illustrate his tree.
Privacy Setting 
You'll notice colored privacy icons in search results, the Howes surname index, etc.
The light-orange/peach colored dot for Jim indicates that his profile is Private with a Public Family Tree.
Only the profile manager can edit this setting.
Tests of Jim's DNA
If Jim's DNA (not a family member's or descendant's DNA) has been tested for genealogical purposes the test or tests should be selected here. This will automatically create connections on the profiles of Jim's relatives where the test may be useful for confirming relationships. It's very valuable for advanced genealogy.
To add tests you need to be on Jim's Trusted List.
Contact
Here are ways to connect and communicate with genealogists regarding Jim's profile, especially if you're unable to collaborate directly using the WikiTree Tools above.
Comment on Profile Message Board

Profile managers are alerted to new comments via email, everyone on the Trusted List will see a notice about it in their activity feeds, and people who visit Jim's profile in the future will see your comment.
You will need to login to post.
E-Card

Private Message — Directly Contact Profile Manager 
Here you can send a private message to a Wiki Genealogist managing Jim's profile. If there are multiple managers or genealogists involved, you will need to send separate messages. Unless your information is sensitive it's better to post a public comment. Login to post.
