MO'OKU'AUHAU

Kekoolani Genealogy of Descendants of the Ruling Chiefs of Hawai'i

Notes


KAUILAANAPA (KAUILEANAPA, KAUILAIANAPU)

Kauilaanapa is the name used by the genealogist S.L.K. Peleioholani.
She is Kauileanapa in Kumu Hawaii article (newspaper) published 1835.


HANALAAIKI (HANALA'A-IKI)

There is only one son from Palena, according to the ali'i historian and genealogist Solomon L.K. Peleioholani.

It was commonly by the believed by the Maui and Hawaii kahunas who kept the southern Ulu genealogical tradition that there were two sons born from Palena: Hanala'a-iki and Hanala'a-nui.

The chiefs of the northern NANAULU line, especially the Maweke chiefs, understood that

Our Kekoolani family follows the less well known, but more proper genealogy taught to us by our kupuna S.L.K. Peleioholani that shows us only one son for Palena as taught in the northern Nanaulu traditions of Oahu and Kauai (the most correct genealogical tradition, in all cases).

Hanala'a-nui shows up later in this genealogy as a descendant of Hanalaa-iki.


MAHUIA (KAPUKAPU)

Kapukapu is the name given by Kamakau.


(4th Ali'iaimoku of Molokai) KAMAULIWAHINE

Kamauliwahine was the 4th Alii Aimoku of Molokai. She ruled as titular Queen Regnant or chieftain of the island of Molokai. Her family descends from Nanaulu, the 14th generation descendant of Wakea, of the first migration to Hawaii in 6th century.

She was the only known daughter of Lanileo and Queen Kapau of Molokai. From her mother, she was the great-granddaughter of Kamauaua, first sovereign lord of Molokai and the great-great-granddaughter of Maweke, the blue blood alii of Oahu.

She succeeded her mother in the dignity of Moi of Molokai, after her death. On the deeds of Kamauliwahine, there exist nothing to be told of her or her husband, Laniʻaiku, personally as the legends are silent. Her daughter was the noted Hualani, by her husband Laniʻaiku, and she inherited the monarchy after her death.

(5th Ali'iaimoku of Molokai) HUALANI (HUALANI I)

Her family ruled for 5 sucessive generations as the first known ruling family of  Molokai. After her, there is a gap in the record for several generations. We are unsure of the succession of chiefs until history resumes clearly with KAHUKUOHUA, then KALANIPEHU and finally KANE'ALAI, the Ruling Chiefess who marries King Keaweikekahialiiokamoku of Hawaii.

In some records this Hualani is called The wife of Kanipahu.  There was a Hualani who was a Ruling Chiefess of Molokai (Ruling Queen). However, it is impossibe for this Hualani to be Kanipahu's wife. She lived more than 200 years earlier. If there was a wife for Kanipahu named Hualani from Molokai, she could have been a chiefess who carried the name of her famous ancestor. But she is no this Hualani, a Ruling Queen (Ruling Chief, Ali'iaimoku) for Molokai.


(High Chief and Priest) HAUNAAKAMAHALA

S.L.K. Peleioholani says he was the high chief and priest who built the heiau of Pakaalana at Waipio, Hamakua, Hawaii Island.


MAKEAMAKAIMALANAHAE (MAKEAMALAEHANAE, MAEMALAMAIHANAI)

Makeamakaimalanahae is the name given by the genealogist S.L.K Peleioholani.
Makeamalaehanae is the name from David Malo.


KALAMEA (KALAMEA I, KALAMA)

Kalamea (I) is the true mother of Kapalana according to S.L.K. Peleioholani.
