2004-12-21 - Information identifying this instrument from the Austin Organs, Inc. web site, accessed December 20, 2004: http://www.austinorgans.com/organ-research.htm. -Database Manager

2015-07-26 - The Austin opus list in <i>Austin Organs</i> by Orpha Ochse (OHS: 2001) shows that opus 508 was built in 1914 for Church of the Redeemer (Episcopal) in Bryn Mawr, Penn. An Aeolian-Skinner organ (Op. 1119) was installed there in 1949, so the Austin organ may have gone to St. Anne's in Philadelphia at that time. -Database Manager

2017-08-23 - Updated by Ken Houser, who has heard or played the organ. <br> <br>Repairs have been made to the Great Division, so the organ is fully functional once again. Organ still needs work but is very much playable and used weekly. Last played it on August 16, 2017. -Database Manager
