Names that other countries have for this feature:
S point of Kemp Peninsula and NE entrance point of Mossman Inlet, Lassiter Coast, was sur- veyed from the ground by FIDS-RARE from "Stonington Island" in November 1947 and photographed from the air by USN, 1965-67; in association with Cape Deacon (q.v.) to the NE, named after Margaret Elsa Jeffries (Mrs George Deacon) (d. 1966), a member of the staff of the "Discovery" Committee, c. 1930 ([in 73 48'S 60 14'W] APC, 1982, p.3; [co-ordinates corrected] APC, 1986, p.3). [The name of Miss Jeffries was originally applied by DI in 1930 to a point on the S coast of Cook Islands, South Sandwich Islands, but was later rejected after surveys showed no identifiable feature to which the name could be referred (Hattersley-Smith, 1980b, p.50).]
