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)

Author (s): Unknown
FATHER: Iwikauikaua (Son of Makakaualii & Kapukamola)

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.

Called Kanalohanauikawela by SLK Peleioholani
Name is Keawehanauikawalu in Forander
Kanalaokapulehu is the name given for the father of Keawe in Kumu Hawaii newspaper 1835 an Ka Nonanona 1842.
There is confusion in many genealogies of Keaweikekahialiiokamoku (King of Hawaii Island) due to the fact that his father is sometimes called Kanaloa-i-Kaiwilena Kapulehu, which is indeed similar to the name given by SLK Peleioholani. It may also be another valid name for this chief, since high ranking chiefs often had several similar names, which were employed selectively according to ceremonial protocols and the rituals surrounding official occasions.
However, the name "Kanaloa-i-Kaiwilena Kapulehu" is also very similar to that of another chief living at the time named "Kanaloakapulehu". Hence many genealogies understandably give the wrong father for King Keawe.
The fact that these two names are almost identical would not be unusual in and of itself, since we often see clusters of name reccurence all over Hawaiian genealogy. In a man's case, the name is given in honor of an uncle, father or other notable relation. This was also true of names given to a chiefess. The recurrence of a single name, not once or twice, but several times within only 2 or 3 generations is normal among the chiefs (EXAMPLES: Keeaumoku, Keawe and variations on Keawe, Ululani, Kapulani, Kapukini, Kaikilani, Kamehameha).
In this case, Kanaloa-i-Kaiwilena Kapulehu was the nephew Kanaloakapulehu. Kanaloa-i-Kaiwilena Kapulehu's father Lonokamakahiki was a half brother Kanaloakapulehu (they shared the same father Keawe-a-Umi).

ISSUE: Kanaloakuaana, Kanaloakapulehu, Kanaloakuakawaiea **
** Note by Dean Kekoolani: all 3 of these brothers went on to marry and have a child with Kaikilaninuialiiwahineopuna. All her children came from these 3 brothers. She had no issue with her co-regent husband Lonokamakahiki.
Kaikilani (w) remarried, to Lonoikamakahikikapuakeawe (k), no issue; they were married for 9 years until
These brothers wold have been famous in their time. One understands how Lonokamakahiki would have named his son after one his wife's secondary husbands, who was also related by blood. Also, remember that Lonokamakahiki's own secondary wife Kaikilanimaipanio was most likely herself named after his primary wife Kaikilaninuialiiwahineopuna.

Ka Makaainana (newspaper) NOV 9, 1896 gives Kalanohanauikawela the alternate name "Keawehanauikawalu". The article is about the descendants of his sister Kaihikapumahana.
