Looks like Lemon Scented Tea Tree but it is lacking the copper tinge to new foliage or Callistemon, Are there any large specimens of this nearby?

Hey there,
Congrats on success, the last one looks like a Brachychiton rupestris seedling, great forgiving abusable trees just keep them DRY!@ first repot cut the tap root off completely & plant with a tile or something similar underneath to spread the roots sideways.
For the first I would go with a self sown Callistemon that has blown in from nearby. However you say there are no trees nearby, if it is a mallee etc there should be some scent when you crush a leaf.
