We are trying to begin a search on our
family name of LUNA. Originally they were from Manila, Philipines,
Simplicio DeLuna immigrated to Hawaii (Oahu) around 1917. His soon to be
wife, Martina EYAREZ, immigrated a few months later. The family story
tells of the name changing from DeLuna to Luna on the official immigration
papers for Hawaii (we are uncertain of when the change truly took place.)
Simplicio and Martina worked in the pineapple fields outside
of Wahiawa (Oahu) Hawaii and gave birth to several children.
A few names of those children are Alfredo (my father-in-law),
Bernard, Natividad (unsure of spelling), Emmanual and Rose.
We would appreciate any help in tracing this name back to the
Philipines. Thank you.

Seeking anyone who might have known Father
Justin E. MAURATH, M.M. (Maryknoll Missionary). Father MAURATH's first
assignment as a Maryknoll Missionary priest was to Sacred Heart Parish in
Honolulu around 1949. He was there several years, and all who knew him,
loved him. He fell in love with the people and with Honolulu, and adopted
it as his home, buying a house at 1901 Coyne Ave. (across from the 7-11
store). This home was turned over to the gracious BRAZ family and sold
just a few years ago. When Father Justin was re-assigned to another part
of the world, he made it a point to keep in touch with his Honolulu
families, and to come back frequently for visits and vacations. Honolulu
was now his permanent home, and he desired to be buried there when he
died. But when he died on Jan.11, 1988, his family desired for him to
be buried back home on the mainland, and so he is buried in Jefferson
Barracks National Cemetery in St.Louis, Missouri. A book is being
written about his life, and the family would greatly appreciate hearing
from any of you who might have known him. Please send responses to:
