Biography
Hugh Meadows Clutterbuck was born on 5 August 1900, at Chequers, Buckinghamshire, England.[1] He was the son of Thomas Meadows Clutterbuck (1850-1919) and Blanche Mary Darbyshire (1862-1928).
Hugh married Madeline Elisabeth Marriott (1902-1973) in October 1931, at Woodstock, Oxfordshire, England.[2]
He passed away on 14 July 1941, at Andoversford, Gloucestershire, England.[3]
| HUGH MEADOWS CLUTTERBUCK died during the summer of 1941, when he was barely 40 years of age. He was a member of the Merton College Arctic Expedition of 1923, and second in command of the Oxford University Arctic Expedition of 1924. On this last expedition, he was a member of the Central Sledging Party. The scientists of both expeditions to Spitsbergen, which were organised and led by George Binney, owed much to Clutterbuck's careful observations and collecting, and the organisation of the second expedition benefited by his untiring energy and determination. Later he travelled in the Himalaya with Kingdon Ward, and in 1931 he led the Oxford University Expedition to Akpatok Island, Hudson Strait. He will be greatly missed in the Arctic Club, and by the Oxford University Exploration Club, in which he took a keen interest. He was especially concerned with expedition policy and was a firm believer in the value of small expeditions for training personnel in the technique of useful exploration. |
