Talk:Waiola Church

This article kind of jumbles up biographies and the histories of Waine{{okina}}e > Waiola, and Hale Aloha. The last deserves its own article, citing Lahaina Restoration Foundation sources, among others. See Lahaina Historic District for more photos and sources. Joel (talk) 22:15, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

Is this Kekauonohinui who died in Honolulu on 2 June 1847 (per Lahaina tombstone) the same as the Kekauonohi who is said to have been born in Lahaina and died on 2 June 1851 and lie buried in the Royal Mausoleum of Hawaii (but who doesn't show up on the List of burials in the Royal Mausoleum of Hawaii)?

The central tombstone in the "mountain view" photo is almost certainly that of prominent people whose names I neglected to record and could not match up with cemetery records [http://findagrave.com online]. If anyone can id it, please change the caption. Joel (talk) 00:03, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

:For a few years, temporary structures made from wooden poles with a thatched roof were used.

This sentence sounds like traditional Hawaiian thatched huts were unsuitable as Churches. I believe this should be rewritten. Hawaiians obviously used these structures for their own temples for a thousand years or more. Viriditas (talk) 08:38, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
