Robin Allan

Robin Sutcliffe Allan (7 September 1900 – 5 July 1966) was a New Zealand geologist and university professor.[1] The university professor William Salmond was his grandfather.[1]

He appears to be the same "R.S. Allan of the University of Canterbury in New Zealand" for whom the Allan Hills in Antarctica were named.[2]
