All of Jeannie's Dreamtime stories came from Alhalkere Country and were passed down to her from her father's side. Jeannie painted the Yam Seed, Yam Leaf, Yam Flower Dreamings, body paint, Mountain Devil Lizard and My Country Dreamings. Jeannie's tribal name was "Angiltha" which means little lizard.
