.... ainae From page 255, Honolulu, August 27, 1847
Hina Wahine, sworn by the Word of God and stated, I have seen Mainae's house lot. It is in Honolulu here
adjoining Hale's lot on the southern side
Nuuanu St. and the store of Kaulukani's husband are on the eastern side and
Chapel St. is on the west side.
Mainae's parents had received the right to live there from Kamehameha I. Kahooilonaole is the grandmother of Mainae and Lono is his grandfather. They had lived there since Kamehameha I and when they died, Kaiawa, the father of Mainae, was the heir. He had lived there at the time of Liholiho and Mainae had also lived there with Kaiawa until he had died and Mainae had become heir. No one else has interest there since a long time ago and I have heard this year that Leleihoku is contradicting Mainae's grandparents' interest, claiming they had received it from Keaka, a foreigner and pilot for Kamehameha I.
