Rampant weed along banks of creek. Many seedlings appearing in areas which are being revegetated

I think Photo 1 is Ulmus parvifolia and photos 2 and 3 are Celtis australis

Yep, that looks about right.

Both Ulmus and Celtis are in teh el family which is distinguished by the unevenness of teh sides of their leaf bases

interesting. the photos are of 3 separate specimens. the seedling was from weed trees along the creek that had been killed as part of the revegetation, and were identified by a lay landcare person as "box alder". the other specimens were from trees within 50m of the area that I assumed to be the same species. I had ruled out Ulmus procera, of which there are mature trees planted in parks downstream from this location.
