list parents as Kamehameha and Kanekapolei.
Conflict: Kamakau, Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii, p 127 indicates that he was Kamehameha's first child and he was born prior to his ruling over Hawaii. Kamakau explains that Kamehameha had Pauli Kaoleioku "by Kane-kapo-lei, of Ka-lani-'opu'u" (Kamakau, "Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii, p 127,311).
Conflict: Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2 p 183 asserts that Kaoleioku was the first son of Kamehameha I. He was "the natural son" of Kamehameha" (Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2 p 333) "The mother of Kaoleioku ... was Kanekapolei, one of the wives of Kalaniopuu. It was bruited, however, at the time of his birth that Kamehameha was his real father, and in after life the latter so acknowledged" (Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2 p 312).
Further, "On pages 333, 334, 335 of Book II of Abraham Fornander appear [the name of Pauli Kaoleioku, the love child of the Conqueror Kamehameha I; he was indeed his son in the time of his beardless youth while he was living in the court of King Kalaniopuu" (McKinzie, Hawaiian Genealogies, vol 1 p 40).
Conflict Resolved: Stokes did extensive research on the parentage of Kaoleioku, concluding that his father was Kalaniopuu ( p 33).
Conflict: Ahlo, Kamehameha's Children today, p 6 identify mother as Peleuli.
