House of Laanui
Template:Nothaweng
The House of Laʻanui (Hale O Laʻanui in the Hawaiian language) is a family of heirs to the throne of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi collateral to the House of Kamehameha. Both houses are branches of the House of Keōua Nui.
The House of Laʻanui stems from the High Chief Laʻanui who was the son of Nuhi, the ruler of Waimea, Hawaiʻi[1] and became the aliʻi nui of Waialua[2][3]. He was one of the main chief warriors who went to Kauaʻi to subdue George Prince Kaumualiʻi[4]. His eldest offspring was a daughter named Elizabeth Kekaʻaniauokalani Laʻanui, the youngest, or muli loa was a son named Gideon Kailipalaki-o-Keheananui Laʻanui. The House of Laʻanui was continued through these two children[5] after Laʻanui himself passed away on 12 September 1849 and buried within the Liliʻuokalani Church cemetery grounds of his old estate where he ruled[6]. His daughter Elizabeth Kekaʻaniau Laʻanui became the only survivor of the Hawaiian nobility who were eligible to the throne after the death of Liliʻuokalani, the last queen of Hawaiʻi[7]. Her brother's child, High Chiefess Owana Kaʻohelelani Laanui was the only descendant from the House of Laʻanui to have children[8] and comprise the royal descendants from the house of Keōua nui the progenitor of the Kamehamehas[9][10].
Kalokuokamaile
The eldest branch of the House of Keōua Nui is from descendants of chiefs of the Kona district of the island of Hawaiʻi, and from the island of Maui. The dynastic line was established by Kalokuokamaile who was the eldest half-brother of King Kamehameha I, who established the reigning House of Kamehameha. Kalokuokamaile was the son of High Chief Keōua Kalanikupuapaikalaninui and High Chiefess Kahikikala-o-kalani of Western Maui.[11]
Laʻanui-Kalokuokamaile
The male line of Kalokuokamaile became extinct when Kalokuokamaile did not produce a male heir. He was survived by his daughter Kaohelelani, by his wife Kaloiokalani of Kahikinui and Honuaula descent. Kaohelelani married Nuhi, who was a ruling chief of Waimea, Hawaii. Rather than being called the House of Nuhi, the House continued under the name of their son, Gideon Peleʻioholani Laʻanui. Gideon's male line came to end in 1944 after the death of Theresa Owana Laʻanui, the last female descendants. [citation needed]
Her descendants:
- For daughters, Eva and Daisy,
(Cartwright-Laʻanui-Kalokuokamaile). - For grandchildren, Elliot, Dwight, and Emily
(Styne-Cartwright-Laʻanui-Kalokuokamaile). - For son, Robert, from whom descend many other branches.
(Wilcox-Laʻanui-Kalokuokamaile). - For the most active branch of Robert's descendants under Noa and his mother, Owana
(Wilcox-Laʻanui-Kalokuokamaile-DeGuair-Salazar). - For daughter, Virginia (Wilcox-Laʻanui-Kalokuokamaile).
For Virginia’s descendants (Miller-Wilcox-Laʻanui-Kalokuokamaile).
Claims to the throne
The Laʻanui are the closest descendants of Elizabeth Kekaʻaniau, who attended the Chiefs' Children's School. Each of the 15 royal children was declared eligible to succeed to the Hawaiian throne by King Kamehameha III with approval of the House of Nobles.[12]
Members of the Laʻanui family are often referred to with the titles of prince and princess.
