Note 6 — The Story of Kahahana.
Reading edition
Kekuamanoha was a son of Kekaulike, king of Maui, and his wife, Haalou. He was thus a half-brother to Kahekili. His son was the celebrated Kalaimoku, prime minister during the regency of Kaahumanu. His other son was Boki, at one time governor of Oahu.
Kaiana, also called Keawe-Kaiana-a-Ahuula, was the son of Ahuula-a-Keawe, who claimed Keawe of Hawaii as his father and Kaolohaka-a-Keawe as his brother. Kaiana’s mother was the famous Kaupekamoku, a granddaughter of Ahia (w) of the I family of Hilo, Hawaii. This was the same Kaiana who went to China in 1787 with Captain Meares, returned to Hawaii, and was finally killed in the battle of Nuuanu, 1796. His cousin, Kaiana Ukupe, the son of Kaolohaka, was the father of the late Kaikioewa, governor of Kauai.
Namakeha was son of the above-mentioned Kaupekamoku and Kanaluihoae, a brother or cousin of Kekaulike of Maui. In after-life Namakeha rebelled against Kamehameha I., and was slain in battle, 1796.
Nahiolea was another son of the same above-mentioned Kaupekamoku and Kuimiheua II., a cousin of Kekaulike of Maui. Nahiolea was father of the late M. Kekuanaoa, governor of Oahu, father of their late majesties Kamehameha IV. and V., and of her highness Ruth Keelikolani.
Kamohomoho is always called a brother of Kahekili in the native accounts, but I have been unable to learn who his mother was.
Kauhikoakoa was a son of Kauhiaimokuakama, the elder brother of Kahekili, who rebelled against his brother, Kamehamehanui, and was drowned after the battle near Lahaina. Kauhikoakoa’s mother was Luukia, of the Kaupo Koo family of chiefs.
Kalaninuiulumoku was the son of Kamehamehanui of Maui, and Kekumano (w), and thus a brother of Kalanihelemailuna, the grand-father of Hon. Mrs. Pauahi Bishop.
Peapea was another son of Kamehamehanui of Maui. He was subsequently killed at Hana by the explosion of a keg of gunpowder.
Manonokauakapekulani, also called Kahekilinuiahunu, was the son of Kahekili of Maui and Luahiwa, a daughter of Kekaulike of Maui and Kane-a-Lae (w).
Kalanikupule, son and successor of Kahekili of Maui. His mother was Kauwahine.
Koalaukane, another son of Kahekili and Kauwahine.
Kalaikoa, Hueu, and Kahu, unknown to me. ↑
