Answer 1

Is this your great-grandmother (number 6 in the children)??? Found this on www.familysearch.org It is the Individual Record (or IGI listing). This shows her parents, and brothers/sisters, too. Hope this helps a little. :)

Tupou, Tuitui S, b. 12/25/1970, d. 07/17/1977, Plot: T 3573, bur. 07/25/1977, * (I found this at www.interment.net/data/us/ca/sanmateo/ggate/t/golden_t10.htm. The cemetery here is the Golden Gate National Cemetery.It said if there is an asterisk (*) at the end, it means it was not verified as accurate by the US Dept. of Veteran Affairs (since this is only a 7 year-old boy/girl, one of the parents must have been in the military & received high honors in order for family members to be buried in a national cemetery).

You could use www.familysearch.org if you check out the home page the drop down menu at the side does have "Tonga" listed which really amazed me.
