Born in Sydney, NSW, Australia, To Clark McCallum and Jean Mackenzie. I grew up on the South Side of Sydney in Kogarah Bay. Going to school and high school in the area. Couldn't decide what to study so went on to work as a Temp - filling in for people who were away due to pregnancy, holidays, illness or just when a company had the need for a project officer. Loved it, learnt so many different programs and systems. Getting permanent jobs such as Spreadsheet specialist with Telecoms companies.
Throughout the years Dancing Sports have been very important to me.
I've created a small business sewing handbags, wallets, totes, backpacks and the like. It is a therapy for my mental health, I love to sew - not very good at clothes but I can sew bags!.
I have now caught the jigsaw ancestry bug, thanks to my sister-in-law.
When I get stuck I just hassle friends until one of them lets me do their family tree too.
I find the Convict and Early Australian Settlers absolutely fascinating. I have both in my family tree. It was great to find out the family rumour of a Solider coming to Australia as a Free Settler with his family. Turn out it is true and I'm lucky enough to be descendant of the large family IKIN. They are well documented with even a book on them,by Graham Thom. And I'm an Ikin down through my Great Grandmother Emmeline Ikin and along to Obadiah Ikin my 6x Great Grandfather.
As of 2022 I have been working with FreeReg to transcribe Parish Registers. I figure that I have found help and BDM on this site, so if I can add more to help others it is a great thing. And I love it, fascinating stories - such as an occupation of - Vermin-Killer - haha.
I tend to come and go with my Genealogy time due to having the 4 kiddos, sewing and family commitments. So I'm a bit inconsistent. But love it when I get back into it.

I came to work on that family through my work as a Data Doctor, then stumbled across the image online, and then I just got carried away and created profiles for as many people as I could.
Cheers

I'm Eowyn, a WikiTree Mentor and Team Member. Our primary vision is to build a collaborative tree with just one profile per person. The farther back in your tree, the more likely you will find duplicate profiles to link into, so it's a good idea to do a search before you create a new profile. Try to add an estimated date and place of birth, at the very least, a country, for each person. This helps in searches. Last but not least, try to source each profile as you go.
We also have a naming standard here.
Feel free to check out How To Use WikiTree. It's a great step-by-step guide to get you started.
Do you have any questions I can help with?
