[The digital image for this is just one of many Vital Statistics Columns that is very hard to make out… How are you going to make genealogical connections if you can’t make out names and dates? Even using the microfilms i could not make out for sure the last marriage announcement. The newspapers need to be rescanned as clearly as possible as soon as possible!]

More on Liliu’s marriage, 1862.

I was engaged to Mr. Dominis for about two years and it was our intention to be married on the second day of September, 1862. But by reason of the fact that the court was in affliction and mourning, our wedding was delayed at the request of the king, Kamehameha IV., to the sixteenth of that month; Rev. Dr. Damon, father of Mr. S. M. Damon, at present the leading banker of the Islands, being the officiating clergyman. It was celebrated at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Bishop, in the house which had been erected by my father, Paki, and which, known as the Arlington Hotel [Haleakala], is still one of the most beautiful and central of the mansions in Honolulu. To it came all the high chiefs then living there, also the foreign residents; in fact, all the best society of the city.

[This is what Queen Liliuokalani had to say about her marriage in Hawaii’s Story by Hawaii’s Queen, first published in 1898. Mahalo to Heather Wilkinson Rojo for her response on the previous post, saying she posted an image of their marriage certificate on her blog. This is one of the many priceless treasures cared for by the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum!]

Marriage of Liliuokalani and John Owen Dominis, 1862.

Marriage.—At 8 in the evening of Tuesday, the 16th of this month, the Honorable Lydia Kamakaeha Paki and Adjutant General Major J. O. Dominis were wed at the Residence of the Honorable C. R. Bishop and his Queen. The two were married in the Anglican faith.

Present were the King; her Highness Princess V. K. Kaahumanu; his Highness Prince L. Kamehameha; the Honorable M. Kekuanaoa, the Royal Governor of Oahu; Colonel Peter Young Kekuaokalani; also there were the parents of the bride, and the mother of the groom, and his cousins.

Rev. Samuel C. Damon was who performed the ceremony. It was appreciated for its righteousness and honor. With the two of them are the thoughts of aloha of this paper.

[The image below on the left is taken from the digital images online. As you have heard me say many a time, the current digital images are often not legible. While this column is not bad overall, there were a number of names that I could not make out for sure. The image on the right is from the microfilms. The microfilm images are always clearer than the digital images. And luckily,  I was able to figure out the remaining information here.

The microfilms for now are the next clearest thing to the originals, and should not be dismissed or overlooked when doing research just because we have easily accessed digital images. If you cannot make out words from the online digital images, go to the microfilms always. Only if the microfilms are also illegible and you really need the information, only then would I suggest checking the originals.

My ultimate hope is that the originals will be rescanned clearly someday soon so that we will no longer need to handle them and they can be preserved for the future. The more they are flipped through and handled, the more damaged they get…]
