Notes

2004-10-30 - Status Note: There 1999 -Database Manager

2004-10-30 - Purchased from Zion Union Church, Womelsdorf, PA in 1918 for $800. [An organ by an unknown builder was dedicated at Womelsdorf, possibly at Zion, on 19 Apr 1808. It was replaced in 1893.] -Database Manager

2018-05-07 - From the 1976 OHS Convention Handbook. -- *There are 14 Open Diapason pipes displayed in the case; the remaining case pipes are voiced but not used. The reservoir has been replaced with a modern regulator. Although the organ shows signs of having been moved and restructured, its early history is unknown. The Swell pedal is of the balanced type. An unusual feature is the use of commas, rather than periods, to denote abbreviations on the drawknobs.* -Database Manager
