*Waikahalulu, iIi of Honolulu, Kona, Oahu

*Note on Waikahalulu, from Awards Book 2:356:

Government takes makai portion of Waikahalulu. Land Board decides

'Kalama has no right in makai portion because:

1. "land has been under the control of the Public Authorities from ancient

times, and that since the organization of His Majesty's Government, that

control was undisputed until the year 1850, when Mr. Charles Kanaina raised

an objection on behalf of Her Majesty Queen Kalama after the King in

council had granted a part of said land to the North Pacific Steam

Navigation Company. "

2. "because it appears that at the time of the Mahele in 1848 in which the

Hi of Waikahaluluis said to have been given to the queen that she was to

have only the mauka portion, the makai part being clearly regarded as being

set apart for the use of the Government. "

PROBATE 1562 (1st CC; 1870) Hakaleleponi Kapakuhaili Kalama died in

Honolulu September 20, 1870.

[Kalamadied intestate;her uncle Charles Kanaina was declaredher

heir. In after years, the matterof her "rightfulheirs"becamethe

subjectof dispute in the Courts.]

[The original Kalama Probate 1562papers were stolen from the Archives

some time in the 1960s. Agnes Conrad, then Archivist, retrieved a xerox

set that had been made for "a lawyer" and copied it. This is the set of

Probate 1562papersnow in AH.]

Kalama's birthdate:

from Paulo Kanoa's testimony in Probate 1562:says he came to Honolulu

in 1821, at the age of 17 [=b. 1804] "Kalama was born then. She was small

when I came here--2 or 3 years old." Therefore, she was born ca. 1818.*

*HAA 1930in "Holiday Observances "gives Kalama's birth date as "about

1820." AH record: 1817,at Kaelehuluhlllu,N. Kona. Korn("Lettersfrom

Molokai"No. 51, note 3) follows AH (1817).
