    Notes 
    • «b»Laufitu«/b» was a «u»Tongan «/u» - «u»Fijian «/u» «u»chiefess «/u».
      Laufitu was the first wife of «u»Rasolo «/u», who was the third «u»«i»Roko Sau «/u»«/i» of the «u»Lau Islands «/u» and first «u»«i»Tui Nayau «/u»«/i». She was by him the mother of «u»Malani «/u», the seventh «i»Roko Sau«/i».
      Laufitu would have been the first to hold and to be correctly referred to as «u»«i»Radini Nayau «/u»«/i».
      She was a daughter of the Chief («u»Lord «/u») of «u»Totoya «/u» and a Tongan woman of the Ha'a Gatatupu of «u»Vava?u «/u». She and her younger sister «u»Radavu «/u», mother of «u»Taliai Tupou «/u» - eighth «i»Roko Sau«/i» and third «i»Tui Nayau«/i», were sent as «u»wives «/u» for Rasolo. It is from these «u»two women «/u» that the two noble households of «u»Vatuwaqa «/u» and «u»Matailakeba «/u» claim descent.
