Grace Kama iku i Young Rooke was a Hawaiian high chiefess who was daughter of the chief military advisor during the formation of the Kingdom of Hawaii, and adoptive mother of a future Queen consort.
She was born in 1808, in Kawaihae, in the Kohala District, on the Island of Hawai i. Her father was John Young, known as Olohana, the royal advisor of Kamehameha I, from Lancashire, England. Her mother was High Chiefess Ka oana eha, the niece of Kamehameha I. She was probably named after John Youngs mother from England. She was raised on her fathers homestead on a barren hillside overlooking the Kawaihae Bay, on land Kamehameha had given to her father on the Island of Hawai i. It is now part of Puukohol Heiau National Historic Site. She grew up with her two sisters, Fanny and Jane, and her brother, John. Fanny was oldest, Grace was second, John was third, and Jane the youngest. She had two older halfbrothers by her fathers first marriage to Namokuelua Robert and James. The siblings were hapahaole or part Caucasian, but still considered to have royal status from their mother.
