Lahaina LCA compilation and Buke claims

I have added two new files available for both viewing and download. The first is a useful listing of all the LCA claims for the moku of Lahaina from the Mahele index-while nothing new, it is searchable through Adobe so may prove useful to some. The second is a compilation of the various claims made by the Government to property both in Lahaina moku and Waititi moku, both for the government and also the various lands given to (or given up) by the various high chiefs in the Mahele. This has several interesting aspects, one being the patterns of claims by various chiefs. A minor puzzle is the large number of lands claimed by the Government as “Fort” lands in Waititi, which is somewhat odd given that the only true “fort” installations were around Honolulu harbor. Both of these files are in the Mahele land tab.
