Other Early Lincoln Settlers in Hawaii
At the beginning of the Hawaiian Lincoln research, this George Lincoln was briefly confused with Lorenzo Lincoln's son George Washington (GW) as both could be identified as G W Lincoln (this identity confusion is clearly present in Ruth Tabrah's book "Hawaii's Incredible Anna", as well as in other records.) The difference was quickly established by descendant Lawrence Roberts (and later by other family members such as Mrs Phyllis (Martin) Stephenson), who provided considerable data about this family.
He married Meleana K Kina on December 24, 1885 in Honolulu. Meleana was born on September 12, 1856 on Molokai and died January 29, 1920 in Honolulu. He and his wife became involved in real estate deals. He worked as a contractor on both Oahu and Maui. Their first child was born on Maui, the next two in Honolulu and the last on Molokai. At one point, he was the owner of the Lincoln block on S King St, Honolulu. Unfortunately he became over extended and had to go through bankruptcy proceedings. In spite of having two sons, there are no known grandchildren with the Lincoln surname.

Lyman is the other known Lincoln who established a long term family presence in Hawaii prior to the 20th century. He was some thirty years younger than George Walter Lincoln and arrived in Hawaii about 1890. He has many descendants currently living in Hawaii. Much of the data that I have about this family comes from a well-respected Hawaiian genealogist; Richard Dennis Souther (deceased).
Mr Souther shared data that Lyman was born in Boston, Massachusetts, July 6, 1863 and was a descendant of Samuel, the weaver, Lincoln. Lyman, and his wife Henrietta K Kepelino (born November 2, 1878 in South Kona), had four children; three sons and one daughter. Both parents died in Hawaii, Lyman January 13, 1953 on Oahu and Henrietta May 3, 1973 also on Oahu.
