Waldron, the captain’s clerk, had his name given to an island in the San Juan Archipelego.» Edmund S. Meaney, History of the State of Washington, (1909), pp.74-5 at: https://archive.org/stream/historyofstateof00meanuoft#page/74/mode/2up accessed 5 September 2010. However there was another Waldron on the trip, the same author writes in a later book. Waldron Island 'was probably intended for Thomas W. Waldron, Captain’s Clerk of the brig Porpoise of the expedition. However, it is possible that two men were honoured in the one name as R. R. Waldron was Purser of the Vincennes, another vessel of the expedition.’ (Meany, E. S. (1923). Origin of Washington Geographic Names, University of Washington Press, Seattle. as cited in Patrick J. M.
