Harry Stallworthy (1895–1976) was a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police known for his exploration of the Arctic and expansion of Canadian sovereignty in Nunavut during territorial negotiations with Norway.[1] Cape Stallworthy was named after him.[2]
Stallworthy emigrated from England in 1913, one year before joining the RCMP. From 1918 to 1919 he participated in the cavalry detachment of the North-West Mounted Police as part of the Canadian Expeditionary Force in Flanders. From 1930 to 1932, he organised a 65 day-long patrol which travelled over 2,000 kilometres (6,562 feet) in search of German biologist Hans Krüger, who had disappeared in the Bache Peninsula.[3] From 1934 to 1935, he guided the Oxford University Ellesmere Land Expedition.[4] He died on December 25, 1976 in Comox, British Columbia, at the age of 81.[5]
