Topic: Nares


In the News (Fri 17 Feb 12)

  
  Sir George Strong Nares 1831
He was the third son of William Henry Nares RN, educated at the Royal Naval School, New Cross, and joined the Royal Navy in 1845.
The problem became so severe, particularly among the sledging parties who were operating inland, that Nares took the bold decision to make a premature return in the autumn of '76, a decision which undoubtedly saved a significant number of lives.
There is a Nares Cape on Ellesmere Island and I also recently discovered that Nares Mountain and Nares lake, in Yukon, were named after him in 1883, by Lt F Schwatka of the US Army.
