Vintage photographs from the Big Island's plantation days, from the collection of Wayne Subica of the Hawaii Plantation Museum. plantationmuseum.org Music by John Keawe
Is there anyway I can find a relative in your museum's photos? In the photos of the workers at 0:32 you show a sample of just a few of them, and I have the information of my Great-Grandfather, the ship, year, etc he came in when he worked in Hawaii from Korea in 1903-5. I do not know the island or exact plantation, but seeing this, it makes me think there must be a photo of him since we (as a family) do not have one. Thanks!
Do you happen to have a name? My families used to work a huge amount of the plantations and they have old pictures from back then with friends who were from asia and the philipines. I could look through some obituaries and some family documents.
Great, informative video tour!
Awesome 🤙
That last shot of Ka'u Sugar sort of reminds me of the last truck in at Puna Sugar.
Came in slow because it was way over weight, because nobody wanted to go back out.
@@Melmn uncle how old you? No trying to be rude just curious cause my family used to talk about puna sugar all da time
