It lies at about the 6 mile marker on the "Scenic Mamalahoa Highway" (rte. 180) in Holualoa. Look for the cemetery sign next to the road on the seaward side. It's difficult to see the cemetery itself from the highway, because the slope is quite steep. Walking this cemetery is relaxing if you're a mountain goat. The rest of us will need good hiking shoes, a walking stick and some stamina. Note: large areas of the cemetery are overgrown when I visited. Graves were obviously present under the grass, but it was too dangerous to walk on the loose rocks, through the high grass, and along the slippery slope carrying my equipment. There may be more headstones in the grass. ================================================================================================================ NAME Birthdate Deathdate Image No. comment ================================================================================================================ !Keopu Cemetery 01_keopu Abad, Teodoro 06 Aug 1899 19 Jan 1968 51_keopu Asila, Francisco 01 Jul 1892 13 Apr 1970 54_keopu Bilecan, Telesporo 10 Aug 1884 10 Jan 1966 37_keopu Cabugan, Esteban 04 Sep 1904 01 Juh 1971 61_keopu Calilong, Florentino 01 Jul 1892 15 Jan 1971 59_keopu Castillo, Monica 04 May 1930 03 Apr 1961 65_keopu Delos Reyes, Pio 01 Jul 1884 21 Apr 1970 38_keopu Depositario, Isaac M. 03 Jun 1895 09 Apr 1966 66_keopu Esteron, Lozarro 02 Jan 1895 15 Jan 1968 50_keopu Filomino, Tomas 07 Jun 1897 29 Dec 1970 58_keopu Fukumitsu, H. 26 Nov 1932 05_keopu age: 68 Fukumitsu, Masaichi 05 Aug 1901 23 Apr 1957 34_keopu erected by: Kazuo, Yasuo, Kenji, Tadamasa, Isowo Fukumitsu, S. 18 Apr 1927 04_keopu age: 62 Galit, Vinancio 11 Aug 1890 17 Jul 1965 67_keopu Gomabon, Ferfecta L. 1892 09 Jul 1965 68_keopu Gomez, Geronimo 30 Sep 1896 05 Jan 1968 49_keopu Hayashida, Hatsu ----------- ----------- 31_keopu Hayashida, K. ----------- ----------- 09_keopu Hayashida, M. ----------- ----------- 10_keopu Ikuno, Gentaro 23 Mar 1953 32_keopu age: 74 Isomoto, Ichi 18 Jan 1887 25 Apr 1973 27_keopu Isomoto, Jenki 11 Jun 1889 07 Dec 1948 26_keopu Pvt 17 Cav WW1 Isomoto, Masaharu 28 Mar 1928 08 Jan 1985 27_keopu Isomoto, Masao 03 Feb 1927 07 Oct 1996 27_keopu Kaai, Joseph Sr. 05 Sep 1899 07 May 1969 69_keopu Kamei Family ----------- ----------- 30_keopu Kano, Y. ----------- ----------- 14_keopu Kato, K. 14 Jan 1949 23_keopu Kawakami Family ----------- ----------- 06_keopu Keanaaina, Malaea Haau 15 Aug 1976 19 Feb 1940 70_keopu Keanaaina, William 14 Jun 1940 71_keopu Wagoner, 1 HI Inf.
