This genealogy seems to mixed up a lot. For example, Mumui is stated as a half brother of Tupoulahi and Maealiuaki. Also the claim that Tupoumalohi end up in Ha'apai? and died there?? The claim that Tupouto'a died in 1820. That Tupouto'a was regarded by 'high chiefs' as low status? The claim about this female individual, Tupoumoheofo?

My contribution ; 1) I would like to point out that Tupoulahi was the father of Tupoulahi si'i, Maealiuaki and Mumui.

  Addition to this, I would like to point out that it was the other way round . King Mumui Tu'i Kanokupolu
  was very much alive, though old when his first son, Tuku'aho was assassinated. Not as what you claim that Tuku'aho
  was assassinated after Mumui died. Tupoulahi was the eldest son of Mataeletu'apiko Tu'iKanokupolu

2) Tupoumalohi died in Nuku'alofa and buried in Hihifo, Tongatapu. 3) Tupout'oa was never been a low status, as proven by his son, that he was the rightful heir to the throne of Tonga.

  Those 'High Chiefs' were more self indulgent and consequences for them, was that some were totally removed
  from being as high chief, etc. (Please check out on  Tongan location names such as: Ta'akimoeaka, Tu'anuku).

4) That female Tupoumoheofo. I think she was a ghost/ myth. If such name existed, it has to emerged after the

  assassination of Tuku'aho, not when Tuku'aho was alive. Please check out the meaning of following names:
  Ha'a Moheofo, Nginingini ofolanga, Taufa'ahau. All of them are inter-related with Tupoumoheofo. 

Thank you. --UNKNOWN PERSON---

I am the last one to claim that the article is flawless. Several historical surces are known to contradict each other. But not to your extent. What you bring up is not attested by any researcher at all, and even beyond the realm of fantasy. --Tauʻolunga 05:40, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Tau'olunga The genealogy you provided was out there so its validity and genuineness needs to be tested and input to given if possible. The point I put forward was the inconsistency of information provided. What researcher (s)? To me the sources is vital, because one's research and outcome will be very much depends on sources and info. collected. As on no.4 of my contribution,and reference to your info. I think there is no evidence of such a female existed. However if you think there was one while Tuku'aho was alive, can you please provide evidence/ sources.

Addition to this, other points in my contribution will be same as no.4.
