In December 1854, while en route to a mission post in Micronesia,
Jane Shipman gave birth to a son in Lahaina, Maui. For the sake of
his wife's health, the Reverend William Cornelius Shipman decided
to forgo the trip to Micronesia and took his family instead to the
island of Hawai'i, to a lonely mission station in Ka'u. Several
generations later, the Shipmans were among the island's best-known
families, recognized to this day not only for their contributions
to East Hawai'i's civic life, but to a variety of charities and
other worthwhile causes. After poring over hundreds of missionary
documents and family papers, Emmett Cahill has pieced together the
history of a proud Island family that bears witness to the many
personal and public achievements of its members while providing
readers with an entertaining record of life in Hawai'i in days
past. The Shipmans of East Hawai'i will be of great interest to
those concerned with the missionary era and the development of
agriculture in Hawai'i and the history of East Hawai'i in general.
