Notes for UNNAMED (Spouse 1)
Kalanihelemaiiluna is sometimes called "Kalanihelemaiiluna Paki". This is Bernice Pauhi Bishop's grandfather.
The identity of Kalanihelemaiiluna's mother has been corrupted, degraded or intentionally altered over the years to be the incorrect "Kukamano" in many genealogies. This Kukamano is no longer recognized as being the exact same person as Kalanikauiokikilo Kekumanomanookekapu in these incorrect genealogies. This mistake that also appears in Forander.
Ka Makaainana (newspaper) JULY 20, 1896 is an example of a well-circulated but incorrect genealogy giving the WRONG Father-Mother pair for Kalanihelemailuna.
The identity problem of the mother is associated with the fact that understanding Kalanikauiokikilo Kekumanomanookekapu to be Kalanihelemaiiluna's mother means knowing about the extensive inter-family marriages of the Maui royal family.
Clearly, the family history and genealogy of Berinice Pauhi Bishop, who was probably the richest Hawaiian person in her time, were adjusted to avoid people knowing about the extensive pi'o marriages in the family background of Bernice Bishop (several consecutive and recent generations of immediate family memebers to each other). The practise would have been considered a barbaric and embaressing shame to her among the dominating Amgo-American establishment that had more or less taken cultural control of Hawaii during her lifetime.
