Futuna in 1841.

followers of the Catholic faith.
One of these men was SULIANO TEUKE who was
from the village of Lavegahau on the Island of
Wallis (Uea).

accompany Bishop Vidal as missionaries to the
Fiji Islands.
The BUATAVA and YAVALA families of
Lomanikoro, Rewa; the KAVENI and TUKANA
families of Nasilai, Rewa; are direct descendents of
Suliano Teuke.
6. In Fiji, Suliano lived in Lomanikoro, Rewa. The ROKO TUI
DREKETI heard about a ‘Wallisian’ in his village. He
summoned Suliano, gave him land for a house, and made
him a helper in his home. Some Tongans were also living at
the village of Nasigatoka at the time.
Suliano married a Lomanikoro woman, presumably
