She was a high chiefess as the granddaughter of Isaac Davis Aikake, the royal advisor to King Kamehameha I. Early life and familyHarriet was born c. 1823 as Harriet Kaumuali{{okina}}i. Harriet's father was George "Prince" Kaumuali{{okina}}i, eldest son of King Kaumuali{{okina}}i, the last independent ruler of the island of Kaua{{okina}}i. George was a veteran of the War of 1812, but would not inherit the kingdom. Her mother was Elizabeth Peke (Betty), the youngest daughter of Isaac Davis, from Milford Haven, Wales who was an important military advisor of King Kamehameha I during his conquest of the islands. She probably had an older sister adopted by another chiefess and an older brother who died young in 1822. In 1824, her grandfather Kaumuali{{okina}}i, the vassal king of Kaua{{okina}}i who had been exiled by Kamehameha II and forced to marry Queen Ka{{okina}}ahumanu, died in Honolulu. Harriet's father started a rebellion on Kaua{{okina}}i, challenging the rule of King Kamehameha II and Queen Ka{{okina}}ahumanu. Hoapili and Kalanimoku, the Prime Minister, were the main commanders for the Kingdom. The rebellion was routed. George and Betty escaped on horseback to the mountains with their infant daughter. Harriet and her mother were soon captured by the troops of Kalanimoku.[1] They were treated with kindness and the Queen regent nicknamed the child ka wahine kipi ("The Rebel Woman" in the Hawaiian language), in reference to the 1824 battle, a name that stayed with her for the rest of her life. George was captured in a few weeks and they returned his wife and child, but forced him into exile on O{{okina}}ahu. George died shortly after, never to see his homeland ever again.[2] MarriageHarriet married John Meek Jr., the son of Captain John Meek, on March 28, 1837, at Honolulu, Oahu. Meek was a hapa-haole and was two years her senior. DeathShe died on September 3, 1843, at the age of about 20, three years prior to her own mother. She is buried in the cemetery of the Maria Lanakila Catholic Church on Maui.[3] Her husband remarried in 1846 to a woman named Kepo{{okina}}okalani and had another son who he named John, who would become the first native Hawaiian photographer. Meek died the same year. See also
