Best Answer

Hawaii didn't play a roll in the civil war. However, some of its citizens and emigrant Americans might have taken part in the war, as per an article on the front page of The Boston Daily Advertiser of 21 September 1861, as follows:

"A company of infantry has been tendered to the Government from the Hawaiian Islands, and accepted. It consists of American emigrants and native Islanders. It is expected to come as soon as the acceptance reaches the Islands."

This group, "Spencer's Invincibles," after their captain, Thomas Spencer, was not allowed to proceed to the US, as Hawaii was officially neutral in the war. See the link below.
