The collection includes biographical information, correspondence, and photographs. The correspondence is primarily between
Howe and other microbiologists regarding genetics and neurospora; however, there is also birding, personal, and administrative
correspondence. There are a small number of applications and proposals submitted to the UGA Graduate School by various departments
desiring to offer PhD programs (1962-1963). There are a number of research grant proposals (1959-1979). Also included is information
and statistics from the Athens bird count (1980-1998) and Branch Howe's papers concerning the Georgia Ornithological Society
with some printed material. One large photo album documents the 100th Infantry Division during World War II and Howe experience
during the war. The other photo album originally belonged to Clifford Cagle (Branch Howe's mother-in-law's sister's husband)
and documents UGA around 1917-1918. The UGA photographs include football and baseball games, students in World War I uniforms,
buildings and scenes around campus, and student activities.
