Helena Kalokuokamaile Wilcox Salazar-Machado (April 13, 1917 – September 17, 1988) was an aspirant head of the royal family of the Kingdom of Hawaii.[2]

Life

Helena Kalokuokamaile Wilcox was born April 13, 1917. Her father was Robert Kalanikupuapaikalaninui Keōua Wilcox (1893–1934) of the House of Kalokuokamaile, the eldest collateral branch of the House of Kamehameha.[2] Her mother was his first wife Helen Kaleipuanani Simerson Wilburton. Her father Robert Keōua was son of Theresa Owana Kaohelelani Laʻanui and her second husband Robert William Wilcox (1855–1903).

She based her claim to the Hawaiian crown on her family's descent from King Kamehameha I's eldest half-brother Kalokuokamaile, and through her great grand aunt, Elizabeth Kekaaniau Laʻanui Pratt, a dynast named by King Kamehameha III, and a student at the Royal School developed to educate royal heirs. She used the regal name Kalokuokamaile II, stating that she was Kalokuokamaile's successor.[2]

Helena was Aliʻi Nui of the Ka Lahui Hawaiʻi Organization from 1987 until her death.[1] She wrote a history of the Kaʻahumanu Society in 1980 titled Kaahumanu Diamond Jubilee: A Brief History.[3]
