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.

His last name is PHILLIPS but I believe it was changed from
Philipe. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I was born

can.

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: John L. Maurath 8808 Eggeling La.St.Louis, MO. 63127
