The Chong - AhNee Branch
Help to solve the mysteries of our Chong and Ahnee families.
This branch is directly associated with the Ilalaole - Pa Branch.
 Mary
(AhNee) Chong was said to have insisted that her middle name was
Adams.
In one family tree submitted at Ancestry's site (no longer accessible
without paid membership), Mary's brother, Eddie, is also listed with the
middle name Adams though we were not able to contact the submitter of
that tree to see how she acquired this information. Then, in the 1910
Federal Census for the Kawaihau District of Kauai, their youngest sister
shows up in the household of her half-brother, Joseph Ilalaole, under
the name of Lily Adams. Where did the Adams surname come from?

Other documents suggest that Eddie, Mary, Lillian, and Lily's father,
Fun-Kum-Liu Ah-Nee, may have called himself "Adams." Can anyone
confirm this?

The
name, Lily Adams, does not show up anywhere in the 1920 Federal Census.
According to several submissions to the LDS church that now appear on
the
FamilySearch site, Lily changed her name to either "Lily
or Myra" or "Lillie
or Myrna" and married "George or Charles Kekoa or Liu." Why
all the name changes?

Does
anyone have any information regarding Fun-Kum-Liu Ah-Nee? His
first name is sometimes spelled, in the censuses, "Fan Kam."
