Since no one 'owns' any part of Antarctica, it's possible to answer your question by stating that McMurdo Research Station has always been funded by the United States of America, beginning in about 1956.
However, in the early 1900s, Sir Robert Falcon Scott -- a British Citizen -- established a hut there -- Hut Point -- that sheltered several expeditionary teams.
As well, James Clark Ross discovered the geography in February 1841. McMurdo is named after one of his crew.
