I am a descendent through his son, John Keoni Kalau Kamahele (Apr 1849-Apr 1906), and his son, Clement John Liilii Kamahele (Oct 1883-Apr 1939), whose daughter Annie Maka Kamahele (May 1907-May 1964) married Henry Joseph Martin (Apr 1900-March 1993) and lived in Waimānalo. Annie and Henry (my great-grandparents) are buried at Kāne'ohe Hawaiian Memorial Cemetery. Their daughter, my grandmother, was Annette Mapuana Martin Sackett (bom Dec 1934). I am interested in connecting with other family members and any reunions. Mahalo 'ohana. Jennifer Ewalani Morgan Edwards, edwardsohana5@gmail.com. ■
