Kalolaina and Tevita | Kalolaina Mapa and Tevita Mapa were commissioned by the LDS Church to gather oral genealogies throughout Tonga during the 1970s. There are over 800 Tongan oral genealogical interviews, which they gathered on reel-to-reel tapes. The tapes were transcribed, and the transcripts were microfilmed. In 2006, the tapes were transferred to compact disc (CD) in order to preserve them. For more information about these oral histories see the next Wiki page [[Tonga Oral History in the Family History Library|Tongan Oral History]]. | ||
