Notes

2005-01-08 - Information identifying this instrument from the Austin Organs, Inc. web site, accessed December 31, 2004: http://www.austinorgans.com/organ-research.htm. -Database Manager

2006-02-17 - Updated through on-line information from Todd Gresick. -- This is the organ that I first played as a beginning organ student and a as a chorister there in the early to mid 1960s. I have followed its several transformations over the years. Most recently I visited the church and played the instrument in the summer of 2005. The organ was altered in the 1950s, again in the 1970s, then restored / rebuilt by Austin in 1988, with a new Great Principal chorus and reed, new Trompette en Chamade and several other new ranks. New console in 1988 which was a duplicate of the original. The Echo division located to the side of the main altar is presently unplayable. -Database Manager

2008-09-08 - Updated through on-line information from Paul Weber. -- Rebuilt in early 90's by Humpe Organ Company, Wintersville, OH -Database Manager

2016-04-14 - Updated through online information from Joseph G. Zamberlan. <br>To the best of my knowledge, this organ was NOT rebuilt by Joe Humpe – he lost the rebuilding bid to Austin in the late 1980's. Also, his firm is in Richmond, OH, not Wintersville. -Database Manager
