The church is set back a bit from the main highway, and there is a large white sign saying "First Hawaiian Church: Congretational". The cemetery is small and was overgrown with tall grass and shrubbery when I visited it. It is made up about equally of old-style stone mounds and graves with traditional memorial stones. ================================================================================================================ NAME Birthdate Deathdate Image No. comment ================================================================================================================ Hawelu, Louise 22 Sep 1911 20 Jul 1977 6_kurt_cong Hawelu, William 01 Jan 1900 26 Jun 1966 5_kurt_cong Kahiliokalani, Mulihele 29 Dec 1860 29 Dec 1926 2_kurt_cong b.
