2015-11-08/2019-10-18 - From the OHS Database Builders Listing editor, September 30, 2016. — "New Hampshire was especially blessed with parlor organ builders. In Mont Vernon there was a closely knit group of craftsmen who produced organs of one to four ranks. Simple in design, their work showed some features in their pipe construction that are found only in eighteenth-century Pennsylvania German organs and in "European and English organs of an even older date."2 These builders were all active about 1830 to 1845, and included Samuel Forrest, William Crowell, J.D. and Benjamen Nutter, and Kittredge."1 Sources: Orpha C.
