Kaohi: Please be aware of our children and their vulnerability about Cyber Space and all the wrongs that happens
I have been and for a very long time battling with many people that do destructive things to our children. It takes a certain kind of element to want to get out there in our community and take care of our little ones. My grandparents and their grandparents did this for decades so it comes naturally for me to do this daily! I am very blessed to have known many Na Kupunas in my life time. Although, I did not know at that time that, they would be gone and I would still be here, it is in their…

I have been doing a lot of research for my husband's paternal side on Ancestry.com. I must say it has been a very time consuming and confusing tree to fill. His grandmother always told him he was a decedent of K. Kamehameha I. @TWright has the same common ancestor- Kaumuali'ikalini Kanaina Rose. She was King Lunalilo's 1st cousin and was the niece of Charles Kanaina. My husband is a decedent of the House of Kamehameha as well as the House of Moana. Kanaina Rose was his GG grandmother.
Your a descendant of Paʻao?
Aloha Mai Kakou,
My 'ohana mo'olelo stems from Kamehameha's cousin Keoua, to Lunalilo and continues to the Hanai 'ohana of Queen Lili'uokalni. I'm currently working with my mother to determine the details as my Kupuna who were knowledgeable in the mo'olelo have passed but it seems we were more connected to the Hola'e and the descendants of Pa'ao.
Thanks Love Kelley for the response. Actually, the Mormon side has nothing to do with the research on the information about my Hawai'ian roots, only that I mentioned it since there is a unique history tied to Hawai'i with my father and his Mormon father. My great-great grandfather was George Q Cannon, who was one of the first Mormons in the Islands, and he translated the Book of Mormon into Hawaiian. That is the only reason I brought it up. A little bit of interesting trivia. Mahalo.
Aloha, Hattie Kaumuali'ikalini Kana'ina is my paternal great-great grandmother, niece of High Chief Charles Kana'ina and 1st cousin of King Lunalilo. Her parents were Kaimualiiokamoku and Kamakahai, with her father coming from Eia Kamakakaualii & Kauwa, coming from the great chief Nohomuaolani Palila and Moana, with Palila coming from Kahiliopua, child of Kamehameha the Great. Doing quite a bit of searching for our roots. Been finding out some interesting things. My existence comes from the meeting of this great ancestry and the deepest Mormon roots in Hawai'i.
