Francis Howell (1625 – 1679) was Principal of Jesus College, Oxford from 1657 to 1660.
Howell was White's Professor of Moral Philosophy between 1654 and 1657. He was a Fellow of Exeter College, Oxford and was appointed to position of Principal of Jesus College by Oliver Cromwell.[1] Howell was originally from Cornwall and was the first Principal not to be either Welsh or of Welsh descent (and the last until 1921).[2] Howell remained in post until The Restoration, when Francis Mansell became Principal for the third and final time.[3]
