After living at Bryansburn House, in Strickland's Glen, the McCallum family moved closer to downtown Bangor. Oriel House, show below, is named for its 2nd story oriel window and is on the street corner. The building is still standing today and is sadly now a laundromat on the first floor.
Our McCallum family came to America in 1905, from the Belfast area of Ireland to Detroit, Michigan and later to St. Paul, Minnesota. The oldest McCallum record is in 1850 of Daniel McCallum, Manager of the Gas Works, Omagh, County Tyrone, Ireland. His wife Eliza, may have been a Clarke.
