2004-10-30 - "In the congregation's 3rd building (after the 1871 Chicago fire). Replaced or rebuilt in the 1930's, probably by Charles Wiener. The replacement instrument, in the rear gallery, survived until the church steeple collapsed into the organ in 1973. Some of the Lancashire-Marshall facade pipes were rescued and used in the facade of the 2nd-hand Hutchings installed in 1997." -Database Manager
2025-03-06 - The church's website recounts the following history: While the original St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church in Chicago was indeed built at the corner of Chicago and Cass (Wabash) in 1862, the building at that location was destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. By 1876, the congregation had laid a cornerstone at 1107 N. Orleans, the building in which the 1901 Lancashire-Marshall was installed - and which now houses an 1892 Hutchings, OHS Database Instrument #56523. While some former pipework was incorporated into Bradford Organ Company's 1997 rebuild of that Hutchings, the Lancashire-Marshall is no longer extant.
