I have come across what may be important information for Portuguese Hawaiian researchers who lived in the Punchbowl area. It appears to be a list of land requests with names, whether there applications were honored or denied. It appeared in the O Luso newspaper.
I will be transcribing the names for yourislandroutes.com. But, I want to make sure that I fully understand what the article is about. I don't plan to translate the whole thing, but it would be great if someone could help me with the headline and the lead paragraph. I kind of have the idea, but my word for word translation leaves a little to be desired. Could someone help me translate this?
