As a long-time member of a society which I cannot name (not TARS), but has an interest which is less than 3 million miles away from George Owdon, I can positively assert that GO was originally from a good family. I have studied his speech patterns all the way through CC and BS, and I reckon he went to a 'minor public school', probably Norwich. He probably spoke in an arrogant sort of drawl.
(By the way, there should be no 'row' or controversy or any sort of dispute about the spelling of 'Owdon', because that is how Ransome spelt it. End of argument, point not negotiable. Or is anyone saying AR got it wrong?)
