  • Three Chinese Stores in Early Honolulu
    Three Chinese Stores in Early Honolulu Wai-Jane Char Early in the nineteenth century, there were three Chinese stores in Honolulu, listed in The Friend on August 11, 1844 as "Samping [Samsing] & Co., Ahung & Co. [Hungtai], and Tyhune." The stores are long gone and forgotten, but they were significant among the commercial establishments of that time. The first store mentioned, Samsing Co., had a modest beginning in the 1830s, next to a bakery on Fort Street, in the middle of the block near the west entrance of today's Financial Plaza. Later Samsing Co. had a location on King Street facing south in the middle of the block between Bethel and Nuuanu Streets. Yat Loy Co. carried on a dry goods business there for most of the twentieth century.1 The second store mentioned was Hungtai Co., begun even earlier at the northeast corner of Fort and Merchant Streets, where today stands the multi-storied Financial Plaza. In 1838, the store moved to a building called the "Pagoda" on Merchant Street, facing the harbor, between Fort Street and Bethel, then not yet opened as a street.2 The third store, Tyhune, also started before the mid-3os, was at the south- west corner of Hotel and Nuuanu Streets. It was marked merely as "Chinese store" on a map drawn by Alexander Simpson in 1843, during contentions over the land claims of Richard Charlton.3 During the period the Chinese stores were in business, Honolulu changed from a small village into a flourishing town with lumber yards, wharfs, streets, schools, and churches.

  • Oral History of Harrison Spiegelberg
    Oral History of Harrison Spiegelberg My family came to Hawaii just before the turn of the century when my maternal great-grandfather General Edward Davis retired here after being the commanding officer of Camp McKinley, which was where the Waikiki Fire Station is located today. He was part of the first U.S. military presence in Hawaii and retired to a large home on Hastings Street today known as Nehoa Street near Punahou. After my great-grandmother passed away, “The General” moved in with his daughter and son-in-law at their home “Red Hale”, so named because of its red paint and the red dirt kicked up by the horses in Kapiolani Park across the street. This was on the beach at the end of Kalakaua Avenue where The Tahitienne co-op is located today. My mother was born here 10 days after they moved into their new home. The land was leased to a corporation in 1957 and was the first co-op and high rise at that end of Waikiki. My grandparents met at a Royal Ball held at Washington Place when Queen Liliuokalani was in residence in 1902 and were married at St. Clements Episcopal Church in Makiki in 1903. My father arrived in the islands in 1930 as a research scientist with the Pineapple Research Institute and met and married my mother in 1937. She graduated from Punahou in 1929. I was born Harrison Spiegelberg on May 1, 1942, May Day in Kapiolani Hospital. This was five months after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I was born three months premature.

It became the hub of the modern Hawaiian monarchy in 1845 when the capital was moved from Lahaina, Maui to Honolulu. It is said that Kūkaniloko on this island is so sacred that the highest ranking chiefs would have their wives come here to bear their children, thus increasing the newly born chief’s mana (power or authority). Located on this island is world‐renowned Waikīkī beach, which once was the playground of Hawai‘i’s royalty. The area was previously a natural swamp where kalo (taro) was cultivated. O‘ahu has become the gathering place for Hawai‘i residents and visitors. Honolulu, O‘ahu Sites of Interest Historic Honolulu Downtown Honolulu and Chinatown are home to historic Hawaiian landmarks including ‘Iolani Palace, the King Kamehameha I statue, Kawaiaha‘o Church, and Washington Place (former home of Queen Lili‘uokalani and current home of the Governor), as well as modern landmarks like the Hawai‘i State Capitol and Honolulu Hale (headquarters of the City & County of Honolulu). Many of the buildings in this area date back to the mid‐ to late‐1800s.

  • The Mystery of the Brig Owhyhee's Anchor and the Disappearance Of
    The Mystery of the Brig Owhyhee’s Anchor and the Disappearance of Captain John Dominis Jim Mockford Le présent article examine le rôle joué par le brick marchand Owhyhee de Boston sous le Capitaine John Dominis en établissant des relations commerciales et politiques vers la fin des années 1820 et durant celles des 1830 entre la Nouvelle Angleterre, le Pacifique du nord-ouest, le Hawai'i et la Chine. Les voyages de ce navire ont mené à la tragédie, car un membre d'équipage malade a probablement porté l'infection malarique qui a presque exterminé les premiers peuples habitant les rivages du fleuve Columbia et de ses tributaires. Il y avait également un mystère, parce que John Dominis a été perdu en mer en 1846, ne laissant presqu'aucune information sur les origines de sa famille ou sur sa propre vie. Le manoir Dominis construit à Honolulu est devenu la résidence de la Reine Liliuokalani, qui a épousé le fils de Dominis, et la reine a passé maintes années tentant en vain de découvrir l'histoire de son beau-père. In downtown Honolulu there is a house called Washington Place. It served until 2002 as the official home for the Governor of Hawai’i and the mansion was once the home of Hawai’i’s Queen Liliuokalani. Built by her father-in-law, Captain John Dominis, in the early 1840s Washington Place is now a museum and in 2007 it was designated a National Historic Landmark. It is here that this story begins. Nearly fifty years after the disappearance of the sea captain on his voyage to China in 1846 Queen Liliuokalani is said to have witnessed a séance that was an attempt to learn about the ancestry of her father-in-law Captain John Dominis and what happened to him on that fatal voyage.
