His son Lord Wraxall told John Arthur Gibbs - fourth editor of the Gibbs Pedigree - that this story was inaccurate and he asked Lee to omit it from any later edition, the facts being that the Liberal Whip Marjoribanks (later Lord Tweedmouth invited Antony to an interview, at which he said that gladstone desired to suggest him to the Queen for a Peerage, making reference to his and his father's philanthropic works, but that Antony having then mentioned that he was a Conservative he heard no more of the matter

Clyst St. George Church. (Extract from A. Hubert Gibbs obituary in the Express and Echo and Western Morning News, 31 July 1957). "After the destruction of the church by enemy action in 1940, it was rebuilt thanks to his untiring energy and patience, in a style which has won warm approval by its beauty and comfort. In this cause he obtained grants and raised funds, chose the best architect and builders available, and selected the most suitable designs for the lovely east and west windows. He was also the prime mover in the erection of the Parish Hall, of which he was a trustee and the first chairman." It is believed that this church was the first in England to be destroyed in the Second World War (by incendiaries). With his own hands he salvaged the two oldest Gibbs' memorials: to John Gibbe, 1592 (brass); and to George Gibbs (stone), 1692, which he put in a wheelbarrow and reassembled in a cow shed at Pytte, where it remained until the rebuilding in 1950, when it was put together again (not quite complete) by Herbert Read.
