Jules Verne - Swiss Family Robinson

No - you read it correctly....
Was making a start to some (well overdue) spring cleaning in the garage today and stumbled across a few items I hadn't seen for years.
One was a book "Their Island Home" by Jules Verne - a sequel to 'Swiss Family Robinson' *by Johan Wyss). There was also a further sequel by Verne - "Castaways of the Flag", which must be in some other box in my garage.
I remember reading them as a kid but never saw them in second-hand bookshops for the next 30 years. I ended up getting them from American second-hand stores in the early 2000s, but can't remember what I thought when I re-read them after purchase.
Anyone else read/remember/own these fairly rare sequels?
