A Priestly Line Through The Ages by Diane Hoapili

Genealogy Website by Diane Hoapili

There are no secrets, only disclosures. The secret is out with the publication of Hawaiian Genealogies Vol. 2. The fourth and last printing done in 1985. The disclosure is here.

Edith Kawelohea McKinzie assisted by Ishmael W. Stagner, II have done exceptional work making it possible for others to reconnect with their ancestors, as I have. Here lies within this genealogy a priestly line, your ancestors, through the ages. Priest’s were a highly respected class of kanaka maoli, unique in their abilities and knowledge. If you ever wondered, this is why. Perhaps, you are of a priestly line, wonder more, and doubt no more. Be all that you can be and respectfully honor your lineage for it. You are not the first nor will you be the last, because the spirit has no beginning or end. It exists forever.

Be not afraid to set the records straight when you see it. Mistakes are made constantly, and can easily be corrected. Wrongs, however, are not easily corrected.

The priestly nation is a nation that can heal itself. May you reconnect with your ancestors and experience this healing for yourself.

“This is a Web Site created for the Sniffen Family. In this Site we will have the latest family news, news of upcoming family events and Family photos.
I have completed the first phase of the family genealogy, which is the arrival of George Knifton to the American Colonies down to my children’s generation. The second phase, The Hawaiian Line, is also completed, it consists of the arrival of Bennett Henry Sniffen to the Hawaiian Islands and his descendants. The third phase is about my paternal Grandmothers ancestors, The Moku Nu’a Line. Our ancestor, Chief Nu’a,  is purported to be the warrior that struck the blow that killed Captain Cook. The fourth phase is the Ancestral Chart of Kamakanoenoe (my Great Grandmother) and Martha Kahailani Moku (my Grandmother).

Any ideas you have please email me. (Don’t expect quick results, since I work cheap, I work very slowly).
I decided to do this because our family history is very important to all of us. We cannot fully understand where we are going, unless we understand where we came from. Our Ancestry defines us as to who we are as a family.”

Maps

This section contains maps of islands, moku’s, ahupuaa’s and anything else related to maps.

This section will either be a link to map and/or a picture of an island or ahupua’a. This is especially good for those researching genealogy in order to determine their ancestor’s Royal Patent, Court Certificate of Title, or Royal Patent Grant. Many of the maps were made by de facto so please don’t take some of the information from the maps at face value. The best map I would guess would be the one that comes with your palapala.
