Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

It is not known when the Laurence Percival Kennedy Gibson Plaque was erected or which church it was erected in. Gibson's name is on the Westminster Presbyterian Church First World War Tablet, so he was a member of that congregation. Westminster-Central United Church, previously Westminster Presbyterian Church, joined Old St. Andrew's as St. Andrew's United Church in 1950 at the present site on Bloor Street.
