Hello...

Here's a basic tree from Mundia. No idea of the accuracy but the name of the wife ties in with the plaque inscription from Gore cemetery.

Gore cemetery

Maybe start a thread asking for a death notice lookup. There are a few Rootschatters down in the Southland area willing to help.

If you're interested in making contact with possible descendants White Pages NZ mentions a few people of the same surname living in the general Otago/Southland area

I notice the cemetery record states her served in the RAF

ALBERT V. KEABLE 1342203 1939 - 45 Rank CPL Unit R.A.F. Date of Death 6.9.1980 Age 59 yrs
It may be worth making inquiries in the UK for his service record,if he had served in NZ it would have been the RNZAF

Cheers Janette
