===Contributions to botany=== Walsham How "had an excellent knowledge of the British flora." In 1857 he was one of the founders of the Oswestry and Welshpool Naturalists' Field Club and Archaeological Society. He was at one time its president, and he contributed a paper on "The Botany of Great Orme's Head" (1865). He was also the botanical contributor to ''The Gossiping Guide for Wales.'' In 1890 he was president of the [[Yorkshire Naturalists' Union]]. His obituary in respect of his contribution to botany was published in the October 1897 issue of ''The Naturalist.''<ref>{{cite web |title=Yorkshire Naturalists' Union: YNU presidents |url=https://www.ynu.org.uk/YNU_Presidents |website=ynu.org.uk |publisher=YNU |access-date=2 January 2020 |date=2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last1=Trimen |first1=Henry |title=Journal of Botany, British and Foreign |date=1898 |volume=v. 35 1897 |publisher=Robert Hardwicke |location=London |page=464 |url=https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/8976604#page/496/mode/1up |access-date=2 January 2020}}</ref>
