Jonathan Edward Baker (1966– )

Jonathan's career in environmental engineering reflected his integration of scientific rigour with spiritual conviction. The third of four children in a devout Latter-day Saint family, he inherited his carpenter father's love of craftsmanship alongside a tendency toward emotional reserve. His methodical nature and calm pragmatism proved essential during the family's 2018 crisis and subsequent transition to Clivilius.

• Current Residence: Bixbus, Clivilius (from 2019)

The fourth of six children from a prominent Latter-day Saint family, Evelyn became the moral compass of her community through nearly a decade of Relief Society leadership. Her quiet grace and unwavering spiritual clarity anchored her family through the turbulent events of 2018 and guided their transition to a new world.

Children of Jonathan Edward Baker & Evelyn Margaret Dawson

Children's Details

Amelia Grace Baker (1993– )

The eldest of seven, Amelia's childhood was defined by first-born responsibility, serving as second mother to her younger siblings. She married Daniel Mitchell on 12 March 2016 and lives in Mount Barker, South Australia, where she teaches primary school. Mother to Thomas (b. 2018) and Eleanor (b. 2020). Her decision to remain on Earth—made whilst seven months pregnant during the 2018 crisis—was practical but carries quiet grief as she navigates faith and family from the familiar side of an impossible distance.

Benjamin Thomas Baker (1994– )

The second child and eldest son, Benjamin shares his father's reserved, analytical temperament. He pursued accounting and works as a financial analyst in Adelaide. Like Amelia, he chose to remain on Earth when his parents relocated, his established career and practical nature inclining him toward stability over upheaval. He maintains regular contact with family members in both worlds.

Nathaniel James Baker (1996– )

The third child grew up reserved and methodical, finding refuge in systems and technology whilst navigating an identity he couldn't fully acknowledge until adulthood. His years as an IT support technician in Port Adelaide established professional competence, but personal fulfilment remained elusive until he followed his family to Clivilius in 2019. There he found both purpose and partnership with James Carrington, a Brierly-born botanist. They now live in Brierly with their adopted children—three siblings from a failed settlement whom they took in during 2022.

Samuel David Baker (1997– )

The fourth child, Samuel was the most outgoing of the Baker brothers, his energetic temperament complementing Nathaniel's reserve during their shared childhood. He trained as an electrician and relocated to Clivilius with his parents in 2019. His practical skills have proven valuable in settlement infrastructure development. He remains based in Bixbus.

Rebecca Anne Baker (1998– )

The fifth child and middle daughter developed diplomatic instincts translating between older siblings' authority and younger sisters' needs. Her eighteen-month mission to the Philippines (2017–2018) deepened her calling to service, though she returned expecting to pursue social work studies only to find her family preparing for relocation. She followed them to Clivilius in 2019 and now serves as a senior caseworker at the Bixbus Welcome Centre, specialising in refugee resettlement—helping newcomers navigate the displacement she knows intimately.

Lydia Hope Baker (2000– )

The sixth child, known for her calm demeanour and natural empathy, discovered her vocation in midwifery during her final years of high school. Her acceptance to Flinders University's competitive midwifery programme came during the 2018 family crisis, and she chose to remain on Earth to pursue her education. Now completing her degree, she navigates the challenge of building identity independent of the family constellation that once defined her, connected to parents and siblings in Clivilius through regular video calls.

Chloe Marie Baker (2001– )

The youngest child, distinguished by sharp intellect and quiet spiritual depth, became central to the mysterious events of 2018. Her friendship with Charles Smith evolved into partnership that guided him through dimensional transition. Following her family's relocation to Clivilius in early 2019, she married Charles in 2021. They now raise three children whilst Chloe contributes to community infrastructure through her technical expertise. Her role in the events that transformed her family's trajectory remains not fully understood even by those closest to her.

Family Residence

Smithfield, South Australia (1991–2019)

The Baker family home in Smithfield, adjacent to Craigmore in Adelaide's northern suburbs, served as the family's base for nearly three decades. The house accommodated the growing family through constant motion and managed chaos, with Jonathan's workshop providing refuge for woodworking projects and quiet contemplation. The family were active members of the Playford Ward, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Bixbus, Clivilius (2019–present)

Jonathan, Evelyn, and four of their children relocated to Bixbus in early 2019 following the events surrounding Chloe's experiences. The settlement, founded in 2018, offered opportunities for the family to contribute their various skills to community development whilst maintaining connection with children who remained on Earth.
