Keakealaniwahine is the mother of Keaweikekahialliokamou. The husband who fathered her son King Keawe is disputed as follows:

FATHER#1: Kanaloa-i-Kaiwilena Kapulehu
FATHER#2: Keawehanauikawalu (Kanalohanauikawela)

The correct father is Keawehanauikawalu (Kanalohanauikawela), according to SLK Peleioholani, who was, in his lifetime, the leader (High Chief) of the senior lineage of Keawe through his great grandfather Keawemauhili, the son of Kalaninuiammamao.

Kanaloa-i-Kaiwilena Kapulehu may be a variation of the name Keawehanauikawalu (Kanalohanauikawela), which would be understood, but if that is the case, it apparently devolved into a different identity over time.

RESOLVING DIFFERENCES IN MULTIPLE VERSIONS OF KEAKEALANIWAHINE'S PEDIGREE

VERSION (1)
Ka Nupepa Kuokoa (Newspaper) SEPTEMBER 30, 1893
Ka Nonanona (Newspaper) OCTOBER 25, 1842
Author (s): Unknown
FATHER: Iwikauikaua (Son of Makakaualii & Kapukamola)
MOTHER: Keakamahana (Daughter of Keakealanikane & Keliiokalani)
ISSUE: Keakealani (Keakealaniwahine) (Ruling Queen of Hawaii')

VERSION (2)
The Robinson Family Genealogy (1908)
Author: S.L.K. Peleioholani
FATHER: Iwikauikaua (Son of Makakaualii & Kapukamola)
MOTHER: Keakamahana (Daughter of Makakaualii & Kapukamola) - different parents here
ISSUE: Keakealani (Keakealaniwahine) (Ruling Queen of Hawaii') - NINAUPIO

VERSION (3)
The Complete Ancestry of John Liwai Kalaniopuuikapali-o-MoliIele-ma-wai-o-Ahukini-Kau-Hawaii Ena (1903)
Author: S.L.K. Peleioholani
FATHER: Iwikauikaua (Son of Makakaualii & Kapukamola)
MOTHER: Kaihikapumahana (Daughter of King Lonokamakahiki & Kaikilanimaipanio)
ISSUE: Keakealani (Keakealaniwahine) (Ruling Queen of Hawaii')


WE HAVE FOUND THAT THE CORRECT VERSION IS VERSION #3
Iwikauikaua & Kaihikapumahana are the parents Keakealaniwahine (VERSION 3)

METHOD:
We would favor Peleioholani, Kamakau, Unauna or Malo whenever confronted with multiple choices. So that leaves VERSION 2 and VERSION 3. The Complete Ancestry of John Liwai Ena is the stronger work by Peleioholani of the two we have to choose from. It represents a major genealogical achievement, comprising the final section of VOLUME 2 of HAWAIIAN GENEALOGIES (Edited by Edith McKInzie). Further, like some of the later works of SLK Peleioholani, there seems to have been tampering and adjustments to the registers, in this case by the editor J.M. Poepoe (his friend and a major translator for Peleioholani).

VERSION 3 represents S.L.K. Peleioholani at the height of his powers as a genealogist. There can be no doubt that he is giving us the correct, though not common genealogy for Keakealaniwahine, as he does for her son Keaweikekahialliokamou (see the notes in his record about the corrected version of his father).

VERSION 3 also helps us to understand the refrence to a "niau pio" marriage in this passage late in "The Complete Ancestry of John Liwai Kalaniopuuikapali-o-MoliIele-ma-wai-o-Ahukini-Kau-Hawaii Ena":

Kaihikapumahana (w) married Iwikauikaua (k), high chief of Hawaii and was born Keakealani (w)/ Second Queen of Hawaii. Kanaloahanauikawela (k), son of Lonoikamakahiki and Kaikilanimaipanio married niaupi'o to Keakealani (w), and born was Keaweikekahialiiokamoku (k).

FATHER: Kanaloahanauikawela (Son of King Lonokamakahiki & Kaikilanimaipanio)
MOTHER: Keakealani (Grandaughter of King Lonokamakahiki & Kaikilanimaipanio though her mother)
ISSUE: Keaweikekahialiiokamoku

Keakealani marries her uncle Kanaloahanauikawela, the brother of her mother. This is the "niau pio" aspect of the marriage referred to in the excerpt above.
