Please eontinue to read for updates. PAELE - I am trying to find a photograph of Samson K. Paele for a historical project at the Wahiawā, O'ahu, poliee station. Paele was an HPD officer who was killed in 1927 in Wahiawā. The goal is to show his photograph on a memorial board of Wahiawā-area officers that were killed in the line of duty. He is listed in HPD records as being born 5-3-1881 and died 6-24-1927. A newspaper article says he lived in Wahiawā and was married, but I do not know his wife's name, nor do I know if he had any children. īnternet research points to him or his family having originally been from Maui, and that he was probably a WWI veteran. A Samson Paele

(b. 5-3-1883, d. 6-25-1927) is listed as being buried at Punchbowl Cemetery. A WWĪ service record found online shows a Samson Paele that was born in Kaupō, Maui, and that he was 35 years old upon enlistment in the Hawai'i Nahonal Guard on 4-7-1918. This may or not be the sameperson ī'm looking for. His address listed on the service record was listed as "Hamakuapoko, Maui." Any assistance in leading me to someone that may have a photograph of Officer Paele would be appreciated. (A photo in uniform would be ideal, but any other verifiable adult photo will suffice). Contact Ted Merrill, paakahili@yahoo.com. TITCOMB - Family reunion for descendants of Charles Titcomb and Kanikele has been set for Thursday to Saturday, July 4-6 of 2013 on Kaua'i. Children are: Susan (Christian Bertelmann); Julius (Malia Kalaupuhipuhi, Sophie Houghtailing) ; Emma (August Dreier); MaryAnn (James Hall Fiddes or Feddes); Angeline (John Spencer); Louis (Hannah Sheldon); George Rufus (Caroline Mae Morteno); Hatttie (Frederick Weber); and Kanikele. Contact: K. Nani Kawa'a at 808-285-4548 or email at reunion.titcomb@gmail.com for information. EWALIKO/GRUBE - I am trying to locate family members on my mother's side. Mom's name was Harriet Kaehukaiopuaena (Ewaliko) Grube, married Edward Miehael Grube Jr. and had five sisters (Ethel, Aileen aka Bess, Lilinoe aka Noe, Kuualoha akaPeaehie and Kaui) and five brothers (William Jr., Otto aka Eddie, Valentine, Herbert, and David aka Boots aka Sonny Boy). Mom's father was William Lonomakua Ewaliko Sr., husband of Elizabeth Kekumano and was born in Hilo, Hawai'i. I believe that his father and mother were John Ewaliko and Kaanaana Ewaliko and siblings David, George, Kalei (w), Emily and James Ewaliko. They lived on Amaulu Road in Hilo. I believe that George married Lizzie, and had four daughters (Ruth, Virginia, Mary and Elizabeth), a son and grandson named .īohn and moved to Anahola, Kaua'i. Kalei married Rufus Lyman, had three children (Rebecca, Francis and Clarence) as of 1930 and stayed in Hilo. David married Julia and had two daughters (Margaret and Marjory) and lived in Hilo. We met a Marjory at our mom's funeral in 2001. Any information is appreciated. Contact Ede Fukumoto at eafukumoto@hot mail.com.
