PIIANAIA GENEALOGY COMPARED WITH QUEEN'S

No. 20

     Like the Kalawainui genealogy, the Piianaia genealogy starts with the medieval chiefs of the Big Island who were prominant in their days of King Umi-a-liloa. These chiefs included the sons and daughters of Umi ; the Kanaloa and Mahi chiefs of Kohala and the I family of Hilo.

     Their lineage follows the line of the royal family through the 17th century, when Keawe II, the King of Hawaii, had a son Kalanikeaaumoku by his wife Kalanikauleleiaiwi. The son was a half brother of the Kalaninuiamamao of the Kalawaianui pedigree.

MODERN LINEAGE

     Kalanikeaaumoku (k) ia Kamakaimoku (w) of the House of I and had Keoua Kalanikupuapai (k) who died in 1752.

     Keoua ia Kekuiapoiwa (w) and had two sons, Kamehameha and Kalanimailokuloku-i-Kepookalani, who was later known as Keliimaikai, the good chief.

     Keliimaikai (k) ia Kalikookalani (w) and had Kaoanaeha (w) the wife of John Young. He later married Nunehiwaokalani (w) and had a son Piianaia.

     Piianaia (k) ia Kina or Kekuapuoikamai (w) and had two daughters, Kalilioku II, and Ulualoha I.

     Piianaia (k) also ia Keakaokalani (w) and had Kupaai (k), Kalilioku I (w) and Kikiakoi (k). Their descendants are not enumerated. 

     Ulualoha, daughter of Piianaia and Kina, had no children.

     Kalilioku II, daughter of Piianaia and Kina, and married Akuna and had Ulualoha II (w), Abraham St. Chad, Alania (w), Kikiakoi Keliihooluhi (k), Kikiakoi II (k), and Kamoonohu (w).

COUSINS

     Ulualoha II (w) was married twice. Her first husband was Liwai Isaac Kaiama by whom she had Ponilani (w), Nahaukapu (w), Leilehua (w) and Pua (k).

     Ulualoha by Daniel Keliaa had a son Daniel and several others.

     Alania (w) married Edward Wilcox and adopted several children.

     Keliihooluhi, Kikiakoi and Kamoonohu left no children.

     Abraham St. Chad Piianaia married Fanny Malulani Kahoalii and had the four children named in this story.

     going back to the Liwai Kaiama family, Ponilani (w) married Kahalau and had a son Kahalau. Leilehua married Charles Makanui

     The relationship between the Queen's famiy and the Piianaia's stems from Keliimaikai, the good chief. 

     This ends the story of the Hidden Alii and the Piianaia family.

► Kalawainui Kaluhikai Genealogy

KALAWAINUI KALUHIKAI, HIS GENEALOGY

Hidden Alii, No 19

     In order to show the relationship of the Hidden Alii, Kalawainui Kaluhikai, and the family of Queen Emma, we shall recapitulate their genealogy and include the names of alii who were not mentioned in the story.

     The chart starts with Keawe II, King of Hawaii, and his wife, Lonomaikanaka just like the Queen's.

     Kalaninuiamamao (k) ia Ahia Kalanikumaikiekie (w), same as the Queen's.

     Kekunuialaimoku (k) ia Kalaninuiokalani (w), Queen's ancestor.

     Kalikookalani (w), Queen's ancestor, ia Kahoalii I (k), whose real name was Kalaninuikaleleau.

     Kahoalii II (k) ia Moakeawe (w) and had two sons, Kalawaianui and Kauhola.

     Kalawaianui (k) ia Nawai (w) had three children, Kaluhikai, the Hidden Alii, Wahineikaili (w)  and a daughter Kaoanaeha, namesake of the Kaoanaeha who married John Young.

     Kaluhikai, the Hidden Alii, ia Kalehua (w) of Waianae, and had Fanny Malulani Kahoalii, Maude Niaupio, Liliha and Alexander.

     Wahineikaili had no children.

     Kaoanaeha ia Aarona and had two sons, Alexander Liliha and C. Kauhola.

     Fanny Malulani Kahoalii ia Abraham St. Chad Piianaia and had  1- Grace Kiowai Kamaikui, 2- Maude Niaupio, 3- Gordon Heulumanawaokalani, 4- Stella Kalikookalani.

COMMON ANCESTORS
     A study of this genealogy shows the common ancestor of the Queen and the Piianaia family to be Kalikookalani (The Bud of Heaven). She was the mother of both of Kahoalii II and Kaoanaeha.

MRS. ANNE HALL
     Kahaipu-o-keku-haupio-ike -kanaka, the man who told Queen Emma the story of the Hidden Alii was related to the Queen's family through Kahoalii I. Kalaniwahine, a sister of Kahoalii was the ancestor of Kauhaipu.

     The story of the Hidden Alii had been forgotten by most modern Hawaiians and was only recently retold by Mrs. Anne Peleioholani Hall, granddaughter of Kauhaipuokekuhaupioikekanaka.

     Mrs. Hall's story was confirmed when Abraham Piianaia produced the genealogical tables of his grandfather, Abraham St. Chad Piianaia.

► Queen Emma's Geneology

QUEEN EMMA KALELEONALANI, HER GENEOLOGY

Hidden Alii, No. 18

Queen_Emma_of_Hawaii (wikipedia.org)

     Since the geneology of Queen Emma has not been published in recent years, many Hawaiians will welcome it. The Queen lived from 1836 to 1885.

     Haole readers may as well skip this geneology. It will be Greek to them, but Hawaiians will want to get out their scissors and clip it for future reference. 

     The geneolgy is tabulated Hawaiian style. "Ia" is the Hawaiian word for marriage; (w) means, wahine, woman and (K) is Kane, man. The child of the parents always follows immediately after their names and the spouse is given on the same line with the child.

     Keawe II (k). King of Hawaii about 1700, ia Lonomaikanaka (w).

     Kalaninuiamamao (k) , heir to Keawe, ia Ahia (w) of the House of I.

     Kekunaialaimoku (k) ia Kaneniuokalani (w).

     Kalekookalani (k) ia Kealiimaik[a]i (k), brother of Kamehameha.

     Kaoanaeha (w) ia John Young, companion of Kamehameha.

     Kekelaokalani Young ia George Naea.

     Emma Kaleleonalani ia Kamehameha IV.

     Prince of Hawaii.

BACK TO KEAWE
     Kealiimaikai, brother of Kamehameha, was the son of Keoua Kalanikupua (k) and Kekuiapoiwa Liliha (w). Through Keoua he was a great grandson of Keawe II and Kalanikauleleiaiwi (w).

     John Young was the son of Robert and Grace Young from Liverpool, England. He was born in 1744 and died in Honolulu in 1835.

NAEA LINEAGE
     Not so well known is the genealogy of the Queen's father, George Naea, who died in 1854. He had a brother Benjamin Namakeha, first husband of Queen Kapiolani.

     Stella Keomailani, regent of the Daughters and Sons of Hawaii Warriors, is a granchild of Namakeha through his son, Hinau.

     Naea and Namakeha are from the Moana line, descendants of Keawe II.

     Their father was Kekuaeleiki, commonly called Ei'a or Poke'a and their mother was Kauamanu or Kauwamakapaa.

     Kekuaeleiki was the son of Kuapuuweloikalani (k) and Hilinaka (w).

     Kaumanu was the daughter of Nohomulani, known as Palila (k) and Moana (w).

     Moana (w) was the daughter of Kauhiahaki (k) and Ilikiamoana (w). Ilikiamoana was sired by son of Keawe, and Piilanikapo, a Maui Princess.

HANOHANO CHILDREN, THEIR FAMILY NAMES

Hidden Alii, No. 17

     The 17 living children of Stella Kaliookalani Piianaia and her husband Peter J.S. Hanohano are a reminder that the Hawaiian race is not going to die.

     Of particular interest are in the amily names given each of the Hanohano family accourding to the ancient system. Each name is "kapu" in the family and may be given only those in the family of the alii who previously bore it.

     A child can not be named "for" and alii, Western style. The name must be a right or conferred by the alii.

     The 17 Hanohano children are:

     1- Albert Gordon Kalawai[a]nui Kaluhikai Kaho'alii. His name is that of the Hidden Alii in full.

     2- Maria Lupua Kaimookalani. A name referring to a prophet who obtained his powers from the sacred lizard.

     3- Edward Bruce Kekunuialaimoku Kawohi Kaho'alii. The Kekunuialaimoku is the name of an ancestress who was the granddaughter of Keawe II, King of Hawaii Island, by his eldest son Kalaninuiamamao.

     4- Maude Frances Wahineikaili. She was named for a great aunt, daughter for the first Kalawainui.
     5- Esther Nahauapuokalani (The Kapu Hau Tree of Heaven). The name comes from the Piianaia side of the family.
     6- Irene Kaoanaeha was named for Queen Emma's grandmother, wife of John Young.
     7- Peter Kauhola (What Exists There?) Kauhola was the brother of the first Kalawainui.
     8- Edwin Kahakupoolani (The Foremost Chief of Heaven), a Kalawainui ancestor.
     9- Carl Alexander Heulumanawaokalani received the Hawaiian name of his uncle St. Chad Piianaia in Los Angeles.
    10- Edgar Kaonaona (The Sweet Child) received a pet name of an ancestor.
    11- Henry Kalikookalani (Bud of Heaven) was named for his mother and she in turn had been named for the ancestor who was the great granddaughter of Keawe II.
    12- Louis Kalawainui Kaluhikai was the second child named for the Hidden Alii.
    13- William Moewaa (The Canoe Dream) received his name for his father's family.
    14- Harry Benjamin Kaho'alii got the family name.
    15- Phillip Kealiimaikai (The Good Chief) was named for the brother of Kamehameha I.
