Hi! there....... my name is Buretaua.Ofati and my father's name is Ofati Taati and my grandfther's name is Taati.well we don't know much about our father history but we were told that we came out of our ancestor called ofati. who comes from a chiefly family from Tahiti who ran away from his homeland (TAHITI) when he was told to marry his own Blood sister to keep the royal blood within the famly. we were also told that anccestor OFATI came to settle in TUVALU and married there and bared children; for me we live here in FIJI with the descendants of ourbloved grandfather Taati Ofati, to clarify more on our family below are some of the list of names that we use:
- Tapufaila
- Faiana
- Kaunatu
- Potutapu
and more names which I really don't know whether it comes from Tahiti or Tuvalu

But any take care

Talofa Buretaua, My name is Talamau (Sonny) Seumanufagai,we are related to the Ofati, through my grandfather, Tonu'u Vaiula the first(Fist born son of Ofati the first) Here is a breif genealogy.

Ofati 1 married Temukisa d of Magele of Iva who had two children, a son, Tonu'u Vaiula 1 and Pupaia d of Levasa of Fagaloa. They had 6 children, 5 boys, one daughter.

I have some information regarding the family, would love to chat more on this subject.
