I really like that you have these early family connections to Hawaii, even before it was made a state. There's a lesson there, somewhere ...
ReplyDeleteHow cool to stumble upon my family plot on a New England blog! I grew up visiting this place and my dad, Samuel N. Holt is buried here, as you saw. I guess we're distant cousins!
ReplyDeleteI have recently spent hours looking through your blog and reading the information you have posted about my family. I cannot even begin to have any idea of the thousands of hours you have spent researching and writing....and even travelling, so that you can become more knowledgeable about your family's lineage. Hanakaulaniokamamalu was my Great Great Grandmother. I have a picture of her that my mother gave to me and would be glad to scan it so you may have a copy. Let me know...and please keep blogging about The Fabulous Holt's of Hawaii!!!
ReplyDeleteI would love a photo of Hanakaulaniokamamalu! Please send a copy to my email vrojomit@gmail.com, along with any memories or stories and I will post a special blog story about her. Thank you so much for making the connection to my blog. I look forward to hearing from you.

DeleteHave you read or are you even familiar with the story that ran in the Honolulu Star Bulliten in the 50's called Tales of Hawaii:The Fabulous Holts? Its basically the story of how the Holts came to be, starting with Robert William then ending with my Great Grandfather, Christopher Jones Holt. I have a copy if you would like one. I would have to mail it to you as its just way too much to scan.Let me know. Some photos are coming your way....enjoy! BTW, my name is Robyn if I didnt mention it before.
Hello cousin Robyn,
ReplyDeleteI have a transcription of the Fabulous Holts given to me by Sheri Iona. Thank you so much for your kind offer, but I don't need two! I appreciate all your help, and I'll see you over at the Holt Facebook group?
