2008-06-22 - Updated through on-line information from Mark Funk. -- If this is First United Methodist Church in Dearborn, years ago the 20-rank Austin mentioned here was incorporated into a large four-manual Rodgers. At this writing I do not know what is left of that electronic combination instrument. In 1980, that instrument was 108 ranks (equivalent), with 20 being real pipes from the Austin. The organist of that time is now in Farmington Hills and has assisted with the installation of another four manual electronic/pipe installation via Lance Luce of Reuter organs. I refer to Dr. Clark (organist). -Database Manager
