Islands in George V land in the Antarctic From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hodgeman Islands are a group of small islands lying close to the coast of Antarctica, 7 kilometres (4 nmi) west-southwest of Cape De la Motte, in the eastern part of the entrance to Watt Bay. They were discovered by the Australasian Antarctic Expedition (1911–14) under Douglas Mawson, who named the islands for Alfred Hodgeman, a cartographer and assistant meteorologist with the expedition.[1]
