East Africa & Rhodesia - 4/8/55 - Colonel Alistair Monteith Gibb, TD, eldest son of Brigadier-General Sir Alexander Gibb, and senior partner of the family firm of consulting engineers, was fatally injured last Friday while playing in a polo match at the Amersham ground, near Cowdray Park, Sussex. Colonel Gibb, captain of the Cotswold Park team, collided with another player, and his pony fell on top of him. …… Alistair Gibb, who was 54 years of age, was educated at Eton and Pembroke College, Cambridge, and then received his training with Sir Basil Mott, of Mott, Hay and Anderson, consulting engineers. Later he went with his father to visit engineering works in Newfoundland and India. In 1934 he went to Kenya to settle. Later he was elected chairman of the Pyrethrum Board. He became interested in public affairs, and also bought the well-known big game business of Safariland Ltd., which he wound up during the last war. Immediately it broke out he returned to England to rejoin the Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry, with which he served throughout in the Middle East and Italy ….. He was a most capable business man, a practical farmer, and a man with a high sense of personal and public service. Above all he was trusted for his own qualities - his quiet friendliness, his modesty, his ability to get things done, and his readiness to help any good cause. The Hon. Mrs Gibb, whom he married in 1944, was the eldest daughter of the second Viscount Cowdray and the widow of the Hon. Robert Gurdon, who was killed in action while serving with the Coldstream Guards. There is a daughter of the marriage.
