I did a search on the phrase “Kilauea Sugar Plantation”. I found this history of the Kilauea Sugar Plantation. Interestingly enough, it mentions one of my distant relatives, Joseph Iida. Joseph was the first husband of my Grandfather’s cousin, Louisa Pacheco (daughter of Antonion Pacheco and Alexandrinha Jose). Joseph was the assistant bookkeeper when this article was published 25 March 1909.
