In The Treasure Hunters, it's Granny who is crying because Greylings Manor, the family's ancestral home, is to be sold because they've run out of money. The Treasure Hunters, The Adventure of The Secret Necklace maybe? Trying to remember the book I'm thinking of. This never goes on to cause trouble down the line as it is only mentioned in a one-off book. I think in some short stories or standalone books Granny is the one who is the homeowner and has inherited the house, land, property etc. And you also have at the start of FoaTI "Your Aunt Fanny has lived there all her life"Īs a child I didn't think their surname was Kirrin, because I can remember feeling rather pleased when I read Fix and thinking that now I knew their surname. She says "my great grandfather" not "our great grandfather", which would also explain why she knew the stories and the other children didn't, because it wasn't their family.Īlso wouldn't the gold ingots have belonged as much to Julian, Dick and Anne's parents as Quentin too if it had been both their ancestors? Yet there's no suggestion they would share. That could be her great grandfather on her mum's side.
I think everyone has assumed all the children were Kirrins until that slip when Enid referred to them in only one book as Barnard. was her 3 greats grandfather Henry John Kirrin. George claims the box on the wreck with initials H.J.K. So all the children have the same surname. They had only seen him once and ha been rather frightened of him. Quentin was his brother, the children's uncle. "What about Quentin?" suddenly said Daddy. In the first book - Five on a Treasure Island - we are told that the father of the 3 siblings is the brother of Quentin.
