Re Captain Flint’s age, Molly & Jim Turner and Bob Blackett climbed the Matterhorn in 1901 (SD). Jim would then have been been 11 or so if born in 1890 but I thought perhaps the Turners and Bob were then somewhat older, perhaps teenagers?

And there are no clues as to who is the older, Molly or Jim? Probably Molly?

John Walker is supposed to be about 12, so Mary could be 32 to 34. But Ted Walker who is a Commodore or Captain is rather older than Mary.
