The Conversation Special Series: Native Hawaiian Sons of the Civil War

Historian Nanette Napoleon Historian Nanette Napoleon told us about a Native Hawaiian soldier who fought for the United States Colored Troops; a Hawai‘i son who died in the Caribbean and remains buried there; and a rare confederate soldier. Only one Native Hawaiian soldier who fought for the Union was buried at the cemetery. An American flag and Hawaiian inscription mark the gravestone of J. R. Kealoha, a private in the 41st United States Colored Infantry Regiment. He died in 1877 but his grave remained unmarked until just a few years ago when Napoleon and others arranged for a marker. There are records of other Native Hawaiians fighting in the war, but military recruiters often changed foreign names for official documents which makes tracking them a challenge.
