She ran for ruling monarch against King Kalākaua but was defeated. Cont

Emma was born on January 2, 1836 in Honolulu and was often called Emalani ("royal Emma"). Her father was High Chief George Na ʻ ea and her mother was High Chiefess Fanny Kekelaokalani Young.[3] She was adopted under the Hawaiian tradition of hānai by her childless maternal aunt, chiefess Grace Kama ʻ iku ʻ i Young Rooke, and her husband, Dr. Thomas C. B. Rooke.

Emma's father Na ʻ ea was the son of High Chief Kamaunu and High Chiefess Kukaeleiki.[4] Kukaeleiki was daughter of Kalauawa, a Kaua ʻ i noble, and she was a cousin of Queen Keōpūolani, the most sacred wife of Kamehameha I. Among Na ʻ ea's more notable ancestors were Kalanawa ʻ a, a high chief of O ʻ ahu, and High Chiefess Kuaenaokalani, who held the sacred kapu rank of Kekapupo ʻ oho ʻ olewaikala (so sacred that she could not be exposed to the sun except at dawn).[5]:4

[imagelink] Emma and her hānai parents.

On her mother's side, Emma was the granddaughter of John Young, Kamehameha I's British-born military advisor known as High Chief Olohana, and Princess Ka ʻ ōana ʻ eha Kuamo ʻ o.[6] Her maternal grandmother, Ka ʻ ōana ʻ eha, was generally called the niece of Kamehameha I. Chiefess Ka ʻ ōana ʻ eha's father is disputed; some say she was the daughter of Prince Keli ʻ imaika ʻ i, the only full brother of Kamehameha; others state Ka ʻ ōana ʻ eha's father was High Chief Kalaipaihala.[7][8] This confusion is due to the fact that High Chiefess Kaliko ʻ okalani, the mother of Ka ʻ ōana ʻ eha, married both to Keli ʻ imaika ʻ i and to Kalaipaihala. Through High Chief Kalaipaihala, she could be descended from Kalani ʻ opu ʻ u, King of Hawaii before Kīwalaʻō and Kamehameha. King Kalākaua and Queen Lili ʻ uokalani criticized Queen Emma's claim of descent from Kamehameha's brother, supporting the latter theory of descent. Lili ʻ uokalani claimed that Keli ʻ imaika ʻ i had no children, and that Kiilaweau, Keli ʻ imaika ʻ i's first wife, was a man.[9]:404 This was to strengthen their claim to the throne, since their great-grandfather was Kamehameha I's first cousin. But even through the second theory Queen Emma would still have been descendant of Kamehameha I's first cousin since Kalani ʻ opu ʻ u was the uncle of Kamehameha I.[5]

Emma became engaged to the king of Hawaii, Alexander Liholiho. At the engagement party, a Hawaiian charged that Emma's Caucasian blood made her unfit to be the Hawaiian queen and her lineage was not suitable enough to be Alexander Liholiho's bride; she broke into tears and the king was infuriated. On June 19, 1856, she married Alexander Liholiho, who a year earlier had assumed the throne as Kamehameha IV. He was also fluent in both Hawaiian and English. Each nation and even the Chinese hosted balls and celebrations in honor of the newlyweds. Two years later on May 20, 1858 Emma gave birth to a son, Prince Albert Edward Kamehameha.

During her reign, the queen tended palace affairs, including the expansion of the palace library. During her reign and after, she was known for her humanitarian efforts. Inspired by her adoptive father's work, she encouraged her husband to establish a public hospital to help the Native Hawaiians who were in decline due to foreign-borne diseases like smallpox. In 1859, Emma established Queen's Hospital and visited patients there almost daily whenever she was in residence in Honolulu. It is now called the Queen's Medical Center.
