Fox (Richmond, Va.: Organ Historical Society, 1991). — Name appears on [some pipes in the] c. 1891 Barckhoff organ [at St. Joseph's Church, Lancaster, Pennsylvania]. The Barckhoff Church Organ Company was located in Salem, Ohio, from 1882 to 1895. —Ed.

2019-11-20/2019-11-20 - From Organ Database Builders editor Stephen Hall, November 19, 2019. — Excerpt for John Speller's article: The pipework bears voicers' marks of "HLStanley'' and a "HAB"-perhaps another member of the Barckhoff family. This writer chanced upon the signature of "HLStanley'' on low C of the Swell Stopped Diapason when examining the J. H. & C. S. Odell organ at Christ Episcopal Church, Shrewsbury, New Jersey. The Swell was added to this 1875-vintage instrument in 1894, which suggest that Stanley had moved from Barckhoff to the Odell firm [of New York City] between 1891 and 1894.
