Alcock Island is an island lying west of Charles Point in Hughes Bay, off the west coast of Graham Land. The name Penguin Island was used for the feature by whalers operating in the area in 1922. Since this name has not been used on published maps and is a duplication of an earlier name, it has been rejected and a new name substituted. Alcock Island is for Sir John W. Alcock (1892–1919), who, with Sir Arthur Whitten Brown, made the first nonstop trans-Atlantic flight on June 14–15, 1919.

  • Die Alcock-Insel (englisch Alcock Island, in Chile Isla Barros) ist eine 1,26 km lange Insel vor der Danco-Küste des Grahamlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel liegt. Sie liegt 5,5 km westlich des Charles Point in der Hughes Bay. Walfänger hatten die Insel 1922 ursprünglich Pinguin-Insel bzw. Penguin Island benannt. Da dieser Name jedoch nie auf Karten erschien und bereits Penguin Island im Archipel der Südlichen Shetlandinseln denselben nahmen trägt, wurde diese Benennung verworfen. Der jetzige Namensgeber ist der britische Pilot John William Alcock (1892–1919), dem gemeinsam mit seinem Landsmann Arthur Whitten Brown zwischen dem 14. und 15. Juni 1919 der erste transatlantische Nonstopflug gelang. Namensgeber der chilenischen Benennung ist Ramón Barros González, Leiter der 13. Chilenischen Antarktisexpedition (1958–1959). (de)
