Aloha List!

Looking for siblings, parents and children of Sarah KAHULA, who m. William
Cogshall 05 Nov 1885, Iwilei, Oahu.

Sarah d. 07 Oct 1900 in Kalaupapa. Date of entry to Kalaupapa was 09 Jan
1896. Sarah and William (the son of George William Coggeshall and
Keokilele) had a daughter named Lena Kaiaikeoma Coghall, b. Apr 1887.

Lena m. Simeon K. Nawaa 24 dec 1903, in Honaunau, S. Kona. Lena and Simeon
had a daughter (no name) b. 26 Jun 1908; a son (no name) b. 30 Apr 1910,
and another son, Simeon K. Nawaa, Jr., b. 08 Nov 1911 in Honolulu, who,
after Lena's death on 06 Apr 1914, was later adopted by Lena's sister,
Lucinia (Coghall/Wright) Kauwe and her husband, Lot K. Kauwe.

Lucinia was b. 1889 and her brother, Levi Coghall in 1891. Lucinia m. Lot
K. Kauwe 10 Jan 1907 in S. Kona. Lot d. aft. 1920 and Lucinia m. James
Vierra on 02 Jan 1925 in Honolulu.

Levi, sometime between 1900 and 1912, ended up in the United Kingdom, where
he married Ellen Eddicott, had 2 children and later died there.

William Coghall is listed as a patient at Queen's hospital on the 1900
Census. He's listed as being married, 6 years, which would mean he married
in 1894, BEFORE Sarah was sent to Kalaupapa. I'm not sure if Sarah Kahula
is the mother of Lucinia and Levi as I have not been able to locate a birth
record for either child. William d. 01 Aug 1918 in Honolulu, a widower and
wife's name on death certificate was "Kepola."

I especially want to know who Sarah's parents were (marriage and death
record do not list parents), who the mother of Lucinia and Levi is and who
Sarah's siblings were.

Mahalo for your time!
