“except the fact that Kenya did not even exist until 1963,”
I looked into this with respect to the Lucas Smith Kenyan BC. It’s a fake, Mombasa wasn’t part of Kenya, la la la. Well, Like most things it is complicated. I can’t describe it all to you from memory, but it was all good for the BC to say Kenya at that time. I learned more about Mombasa history than I care to remember, but this is not an issue.
Hospital name I don’t know about other than someone claiming to live there throughout those time periods and today, and drove by there everyday, said the name went unchanged. They seemed credible, you should check that out.

This is the story of two hospitals: Kauikeolani Children’s Hospital and Kapi‘olani Maternity Home.
Concerned about the welfare of Hawaii’s mothers, Queen Kapi‘olani held luau and bazaars to raise the $8,000 needed to open Kapi‘olani Maternity Home in 1890. She endowed her legacy with “Kulia i ka nu‘u” or “Strive for the highest.”
In 1908, Albert and Emma Kauikeolani Wilcox donated $50,000 to start a children’s hospital. The community, concerned that two of every seven infants in Hawai‘i did not live to see their first birthday, rallied to match the Wilcox’s gift. A year later, Kauikeolani Children’s Hospital opened.
The two hospitals joined in 1978 to become Kapi‘olani Medical Center for Women & Children
