Princess Abigail Helen Kapiolani Kawananakoa (March 14, 1903 - April 8, 1961), was the eldest daughter of Abigail Kawananakoa born during her marriage with Prince David Kawananakoa. According to some she became the head of the House of Kawananakoa upon the death of her younger brother Prince Edward David Kalakaua Kawananakoa on May 20, 1953. Her younger sister was the Princess Helen Lydia Liliuokalani Kawananakoa.
The younger Princess Abigail married twice: to Andrew Anderson Lambert in 1922, and later to Harry Montague Field. She had three children by her first husband: Edward A. Kawananakoa, Virginia Po'omaikelani Kawananakoa (1926-1998), and Esther Kapiolani Kawananakoa Marignoli (born 1928).
Upon her death on April 8, 1961, her eldest son Edward A. Kawananakoa became the most senior native Hawaiian and heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Hawai'i.
