Hi,
I found a Daniel Woodward and family on the Villa Family Tree,
http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/12793736/person/-178484667.
Daneil Woodward b. 1829, Hawaii. Daniel married Ellen Umiokalani Kahinu in 1865. They had 7 children.
"When the missionaries arrived in Hawaii in 1820, the Hawaiian had already dismantled their heliaus and had rejected their religious beliefs. From 1837 to 1840, nearly 20,000 Hawaiians finally chose to accept Christianity as their new religion"
www.hawaiian-roots.com/missionaries.htmIn 1865 most birth, marriage and death records were kept by the churches. I don't have a clue what religion the Woodward family adopted.
I found some marriage info at the Hawaii State Archives,
http://hawaii.gov/dags/archives for Ellen and some of the children.
The Villa Family Tree doesn't show that Ellen married after Daniel died but a Lewis S. Smith marred Helen U. Woodward September 14, 1914 in Honolulu. Book & Page: O-94(4):70.
You can order the actual document from the Archives,
