I was told when I was in Taiwan that Hawaiians actually came from Taiwan.

"Dr. Kirch, who did not participate in the genetic study, said that it reinforced research showing that Polynesian speech patterns were unrelated to Melanesian languages, suggesting — along with discoveries of the distinctive Lapita pottery across the Pacific — links to Taiwan and China, not Melanesia. “The combination of evidence shows we really can read this history,” he said."

Melanesia means Black Islanders.

I believe most of the Polynesians are related to the Lapita people who I believe are/were the Jomon/Ainu people of Japan.
