Early life

Barne was born at Sotterley Park, Suffolk the son of Frederick Barne and his wife, Lady Constance Adelaide Seymour, daughter of Francis Seymour, 5th Marquess of Hertford. His father was Member of Parliament for East Suffolk. He entered the Navy as a Midshipman in 1893. In 1898 he was commissioned to serve aboard HMS Porcupine.

Selected for "Discovery"

In 1901 he was appointed by Scott as Second Lieutenant to the Polar Expedition. Despite suffering frostbite Barne made copious notes throughout his three years with the expedition, both about general conditions and his specialist fields( magnetronemy and Soundings). Scott rated his ability to calm possible tensions highly.Barne Inlet, a 17-mile-wide (27 km) feature on the Western side of the Ross Ice Shelf he discovered is named after him. He was awarded the Polar Medal for his contribution to the expedition.

Post-Antarctic career

Marrying on his return from the Antarctic, Barne returned to active service with command of the Coquette, but still corresponded with Scott about modes of transport for future expeditions. During the First World War, he was awarded the DSO while commanding Monitor M27, finally retiring in 1919 with the rank of Captain. During the next war Barne came out of retirement to command an anti-submarine patrol ship.
