A Bit About the History of Celts in Hawaii

Submitted by auntrayrobin on Sat, 07/03/2010 - 10:11

It did not take the Sons of Erin, and the children of William Wallce long to find Hawaii. In all probably, there were Irish, Scottish, and Welsh seamen sailing with Captain Cook's ships and other British vessels which arrived in the early days. Over time, there were sailors from Celtic descent that decided to stay in the islands for good. Who can blame them.

The complete record of ancestory was not recorded, as we have always failed to fully appreciate the Hawaiian understanding of ancestory. Nevertheless, there are lots of Hawaiians who claim a link to the land of the Celts. There's even a hula about an Irish-Hawaiian, named Lola O"Brien. The Irish Hawaiians are even well organized in Honolulu, just check out the Friends of St. Patrick organization.
