Marriage and descendants

Auhea married Jesse Crowningburg (a German-American settler in Hawaii), sometime before 1859.[note 1] He served a tax collector for Lahaina and Wailuku.[5]Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).[6][7][8]

They had two children: William Charles Keeaumoku Crowningburg and Elizabeth Keomailani Crowningburg (1859–1887). Another daughter Lydia Kalola died at Lahaina on November 21, 1859, at the age of eight months and twenty-seven days.[9] Their marriage ended in divorce. On January 20, 1873, she remarried to Paul Kamai. They had a son named Albert Edward Kameeiamoku Kamai. Kamai probably died shortly afterward.[10][11]


The High-Chiefess Miriam Auhea-Kekauluohi the Second married again after the unfortunate death of her husband William Crowningburg. Her second husband was Paul Kamai, a maternal uncle of the late Mrs. Otto Isenberg (Helen Manaiula Lewis) and her half-sister, Mrs. James Campbell (Abigail maipinepine later the second Mrs. Samuel Parker). Their only son, Charles Harold Kameelamoku-Kaiheekai, died as a youth.[1]

    • His mother, Keomailani, was of chiefish descent and therefore accompanied by two other little Hawaiian maidens as attendants when she had been sent by Mrs. Bernice Pauahi Bishop to be educated at Ascot Priory in England. On her return journey to Honolulu, Keomailani was chaperoned at Queen Emma's request by Mrs. J. S. McGrew with her small daughter Kate, now Mrs. Charles B. Cooper. To this day Mrs. Cooper tells vividly of her mother's embarrassment on needing to borrow money from a strange gentleman on the overland train to cover the unexpected expense of Keomailani's heavy English "boxes" of books and music; also of Keomailani's wedding not long after at Honolulu in the little wooden pro-cathedral of St. Andrew's; the groom was Mr. Wray Taylor, cathedral organist for many years, and small bridesmaids, Kate McGrew and Emmelita Wilder, were both very proud of their new white dresses adorned with broad red satin sashes! William Bishop Taylor, son of this marriage, was taken as an infant into Mrs. Bishop's motherly care. And well he remembered the day in 1888 -when he sat on Mr. Bishop's knee during the drive in a hack out to the new Kamehameha Preparatory School to be entered among its first pupils. Many look through the wrought iron gateway of the Royal Mausoleum today, on Nuuanu's Mauna Ala (Fragrant Mountain), but not many realize that the old mausoleum itself, erected of coral reef rock in 1864 for Kings Kamehameha II, III, IV, and V, is today no longer a burial repository.[16]
  • Keomailani, was a granddaughterof abrother of Kamehameha I. After she returned to the Islands,she married Mr.Wray Taylor, who was organist at St. Andrew's Cathedral. Theirchildren, William Bishop Taylor and Mrs. Emma Strauss,were leaders inHawaiian societies. Mr. Taylor served as trusteeof Lunalilo Home andwas in charge of the Royal Mausoleum. Mrs. Strauss,a godchild ofQueen Emma, was in charge of the Queen Emma Museum.[17]


Five children: William Edward Bishop Kaiheʻekai Taylor (1882–1956), Mabel Nalanielua, Harriet Kalanihoaono-o-Kahikoloa, Emily Auhea Kekāuluohi and Beatrice Albertina Kuliaikanuu.[18]

Keeaumoku

William Charles Keeaumoku Crowningburg, photographed in 1878 by Henry L. Chase.[19]

Around the 1870s, her son William Charles Keʻeaumoku Crowningburg contracted leprosy, which was incurable at the time. He was exiled to the leper colony at Kalaupapa on the island of Molokaʻi in 1874, a year after Father Damien arrived on the island. Peter Kaeo, cousin of Queen Emma, was also a patient on the colony. Because of his aliʻi ancestry, Keʻeaumoku was given a paid position and appointed the head constable or sheriff of Kalaupapa by the colony's luna (supervisor) William Kealoha Sumner. However, he was known to have abused his power and position, encouraging drunken binges and the distilling of ʻōkolehao by the patients. Other patients petitioned for him to be removed from office. He was charged with excessive use of force toward fellow police officers and the inmates, especially J. K. Kahuila, a patient and Protestant minister who Father Damien had imprisoned, led Sumner to finally dismiss him.[20][21] Keʻeaumoku eventually died on Kalaupapa, although the date is not mentioned.[5]

He and his wife Lydia Pahau had a daughter Miriam Peleuli Crowningburg who married Samuel Apolo Amalu and had descendants.[22][23][24]

Wm. Crouningberg, aged 46, male, nativity Lahaina; mother Hawaiian, father American, both were healthy. C. healthy from youth up. In 1869 had an anaesthetic spot on right foot. In 1873 one appeared upon face. Went to Honolulu for examination. In 1874 sent to Kalawao. He is covered with salmon-colored spots. Hands afl'ected, fingers off one hand. Skin dry, shrivelled, cracking. Vaccinated a very long time before leprosy appeared. During 4 months used Hoang Nan pills with wonderful effect for amelioration. Looks somewhat different from his appearance when his photograph was taken; now covered with scales, longest finger of right hand gone, both hands sore. The above cases I hope will prove of interest to such of the profession as are giving some attention to this rapidly increasing disease. , They are necessarily more meagre than I could wish to have them, but even those whose histories were taken by a non professional gentleman, illustrate many of the most interest ing symptoms of leprosy, and every little helps to swell the total amount of knowledge possessed of a disease. It will be noted that syphilis or any syphilitic cachexiae were in every case diligently sought for, for there are some on these islands, as well as in India and elsewhere, who hold to an intimate connection between syphilis and leprosy. If there is any such relation as they claim, then is it unnecessary to speculate as to the manner of introduction of leprosy into this kingdom, for though my experience in foreign lands is confined to these Islands, I am not prepared to read of a country where syphilis is so prevalent, so grounded into the whole native population as here. The problem, then, would be, how long the disease—s_vphilis—left to itself‘, would require to become elaborated into leprosy. But I am not willing yet to adopt such an hypothesis, for then should leprosy be more general in the families of those affected, as well as more common in other countries, where there is a certain proportion of families thoroughly imbued with syphilis, and from which they have not been exempt for several generations. Again, anti-syphilitic treatment should give some good results, which is not the case, save when syphilis is added to the disease. Moreover, the symptoms of the two diseases do not coincide in a way to warrant such an opinion.

  • Evidence of an existing photograph


Born in 1882 of a Hawaiian mother and an English father, Mr. Taylor, through his mother's family, is a lineal descendant of the Kamehameha dynasty, his great grandmother having been a sister to the High Chiefess Auhea, mother of King ...[26]

Her grandson William Edward Bishop Kaiheʻekai Taylor (1882–1956), who Bernice Pauahi Bishop had wanted to hānai (adopt), would later serve as a trustee for the Lunalilo Home.[4][27] Taylor would succeed the Kahea's, descendant of Auhea's aunt Kahinu Beckley, as kahu of the Royal Mausoleum at Mauna ʻAla in 1947, serving till his death. All subsequent kahu of Mauna ʻAla have been descendants of Auhea and her ancestor Hoʻolulu except for Taylor's widow and Hawaiian kumu hula ʻIolani Luahine.[28][29] However her most disreputable descendant is her great-great-great grandson Sammy Amalu (1917–1986), a con man and longtime columnist at The Honolulu Advertiser. A self-proclaimed royal, who titled himself High Chief Kapiikauinamoku, Prince of Keawe and Duke of Konigsberg, he attempted to buy up several Waikiki hotels with phony checks in the 1940s and ended up in jail.[30][31][32][33] Under the alias Kapiikauinamoku, he wrote "The Story of Hawaiian Royalty" and "The Story of Maui Royalty," in a series of columns written for the The Honolulu Advertiser, which accounts much of the genealogy of Hawaii's aliʻi families including his ancestress Auhea.
