His father was ʻUmi-a-Liloa, Aliʻi of Hawaiʻi. His mother was Piʻikea, daughter of Piʻilani of Maui.

Kumalae was given the district of Hilo to rule as its district chief, and his successors would be notable as being fiercely resistant to the main line of the Hawaiian chiefs descended from his elder brothers.{{cite book|last=Kamakau|first=Samuel|author-link=Samuel Kamakau|title=Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii|url=https://puke.ulukau.org/ulukau-books/cgi-bin/imageserver.pl?oid=EBOOK-CHIEFS&getpdf=true|edition=Revised|year=1992|orig-year=1961|publisher=Kamehameha Schools Press|location=Honolulu|isbn=0-87336-014-1|pages=|access-date=2023-01-06|archive-date=2022-11-29|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221129044844/https://puke.ulukau.org/ulukau-books/cgi-bin/imageserver.pl?oid=EBOOK-CHIEFS&getpdf=true|url-status=bot: unknown}}
