Our family has a mountain in Antarctica named for a living descendant of John Clough. An ice-free mountain, 2,230m in the Queen Maud Mountains. Discovered and first mapped by the Byrd Ant. Exp. 1928- 1930. Named for John W. Clough geophysicist who participated in the South Pole-Queen Maud Land Traverse II, in austral summer 1965-66. John W. Clough, a 10th generation member of the JCGS says, “There were a lot of scientists and support staff working in Antarctica during the 1960’s, including a USGS photo-mapping team taking lots of photos for accurate mapping of the continent’s features. Because our small group was doing unique scientific exploration in the center of the continent, each member of our team had a feature named for them. We were in the right place at the right time to receive this honor.” John W. Clough (#13961 in our new volume set) made 10 trips to Antarctica between 1965 and 1978. His great grandfather was Capt. Benjamin Clough (#4265 in our new volume set).
