Burmese monarchs family tree
I'm currently working on a family tree of Burmese monarchs, but I'm having some problems:


 * First of all, I don't know how Mohnyinthado of Ava is related to Kalekyet Taungnyo of Ava; same thing with
 * Minkhaung II and Thihathura of Ava
 * Hkonmaing and Thohanbwa of Ava
 * Sithu Kyaw Htin and Mobye Narapati of Ava
 * Zein Pun and Saw Zein of Hanthawaddy
 * Smim Sawhtut and Takayutpi of Hanthawaddy.
 * Swasawke of Ava and the Three Shan Brothers/Bagan dynasty (In the list you say that Swaske is descended from both the Three Shan brothers and the Bagan dynasty, but you don't say in what way)

If you or no one knows how they are related, or if they aren't related, tell me and I'll put unknown relationship or not related on the family tree.

Second of all, you say Thohanbwa of Ava is the son of "Sawlun the Mohnyin conqueror." Is he somehow related to the kings of Ava?

Thanks for any replies! --Nathan M. Swan (talk) 02:56, 15 December 2009 (UTC)


 * I don't have answers to all the questions. Will have to get back to you.
 * Saw Zein and Zein Pun are not related. Zein Pun was a usurper. He was a court official who took over the throne for a few days after Saw Zein died in battle.
 * Hkonmaing and Thohanbwa were not related. Nor were Sithu Kyaw Htin and Mobye Narapati. They were all different Shan (saophas) chiefs.
 * Swasawke's lineage, according to Maung Htin Aung's A History of Burma, is as follows: A son of King Narathihapate, Prince Thihathu of Prome married the younger sister of Three Shan Brothers, and had a daughter. She married her first cousin, son of Kyawswa of Pagan. (Thihathu of Prome and Kyawswa of Pagan were brothers.) The union produced Swasawke. So, Swasawke was a great-grandson of Narathihapate, a grandson of Kyawswa and a grandnephew of the Shan Brothers.
 * Minkhaung II was a son of Thihathura.
 * Sawlun was saopha (chief) of Mohnyin, and was not related to the previous kings of Ava.
 * Mohnyinthado and Kalekyet were not related. One of Mohnyinthado's ancestors supposedly was a daughter of Kyawswa I of Pinya. That means Mohnyinthado also claimed descent from both Pagan (Bagan) and the Shan Brothers. Hope this helps.Hybernator (talk) 02:58, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

Hawaii Family Tree
Nice job on the tree. But I would like to point out some mistakes. You listed Kaahumanu III as the daughter of Kamehameha I when she was his niece. Instead of linking Kamehameha I to his mother, you might try his father Keoua and then Keeaumoku Nui in Haae's place who are also Kaahumanu III's grandfather and great grandfather. Also do you know how to show sister and brother marriage of Kanoena and Keawepoepoe and the twin line that descend from Kepookalani look at WikiProject Hawaii/Genealogy--KAVEBEAR (talk) 07:19, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
 * That is the interesting part. Kamehameha I's mother and father were double first cousins and Keeaumoku Nui is also Kalanikauleleiaiwi's son. I changed it to Kamehameha's fathter's line because Kalaimamahu was Kamehameha's half brother.
 * Look at the new edit see what you think.
