LINEAGE
A. Conflict: Pukui, Hawaiian Genealogies, p 79 lists parents as Keawepoepoe and Kumaaiku.
LIFE
A. He was a twin with Kamanawa (Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2 p 154; He kuauhau no ka hanau ana o na kupuna a pau o hawaii nei, G-10, p 12).
Conflict: "Though every Hawaiian genealogy...states Kameeiamoku and Kamanawa were the twin children of Keawepoepoe and his mate Kanoena, yet all the older legends which refer to these two chiefs call them the sons of Kekaulike. 'Na keiki kapu a Kekaulike'." (Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2 p 261). Kamakau, Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii, p 352 referred to them as the "tabu twins of Kekaulike" and Buke Ku Auhau Hawaii, G-8, p 50 states "they are called the royal twins of Kekaulike," and yet lists parents as Keawepoepoe and Kanoena. They could have possibly been adopted by Kekaulike. However, if they were sons of Kekaulike, they would have been brothers of Kahekili and fought against him in the army of Kalaniopuu (see Kalakaua, The Legends and Myths of Hawaii, p 359). "The Royal Twins of Kekaulike," as they were called, Kameeiamoku and Kamanawa, were sons of Keawepoepoe" (McKinzie, Hawaiian Genealogies, p 71).
Kamakau, Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii, p 68 states: "It was the custom from ancient times among the chiefs of Hawaii for the chief of one island to give a child to the chief of another island .... this is why the twins Ka-me'e-ia-moku and Ka-manawa, who were the children of Ke-kau-like, ruling chief of Maui, were made tabu to live on Hawaii as associates for the child of Kahekili."
B. Kameeiamoku was "a Hawaii chieftan and grandson of Lonoikahaupu" (Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2 p 295).
C. He was one of four principal chiefs to assist Kamehameha I in his conquest of the islands (Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2 p 132). Kamehameha made these four his governors across the island chain (Kamakau, Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii, p 175).
D. He was the one who told Kamehameha that he was the son of Kahekili instead of Keoua (Kamakau, Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii, p 188).
E. Contemporaries: Those who joined him in the capture of the sloop captained by Isaac Davis in 1790 were: Nauki, Kuaiwa, Kuahiku, Mano-hili, Naluhi, Ahu-ole, Pe'e and some of his relatives: Kalaukoa, Manuhoa, Kanuha, and Keakaokalani (Kamakau, Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii, p 147).
In Extract of The Diary of Ebenezer Townsend, Jr., Hawaiian Historical Society Reprints, No. 4, 1888, p. 10, it states that Isaac Davis was first mate; Captain Metcalf was killed, and Isaac Davis was spared and cared for by Kamehameha. Dibble, History of the Sandwich Islands, p 60 indicates that Isaac Davis "was carried off as dead; he revived, however, and ... was taken care of by Kamehameha in company with John Young."
F. Oukah, Hawaiian Royal & Noble Genealogies, p 116 adds another mate Kauhilanahonua , mother of Kekuaiwahia (k).
G. Conflict: Keeaumoku died in March 1823 (Kamakau, Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii, p 254).
Conflict: Genealogies, etc., M397-2-17 states death year as 1802. Dibble, History of the Sandwich Islands, p 72 states he died during the time Kamehameha visited Lahaina 4 years after quelling the insurrection by Namakeha in 1796, as did Jarves, History of the Hawaiian or Sandwich Island, p 191. 1802 seems likely.
