"Johes" is the clerk's short form of "Johannes" which is Latin for "John".
If we see "Johis" this is short for the possessive form "Johannis" as in:
"Johannes filius Johannis Smith", short form "Johes fil Johis Smith",
translates as "John son of John Smith".
Name: Johannis, genitive form of Johannes.
