2024-06-13 - This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified from the Hook opus list. The 1846 building was extended in 1853 prior to the arrival of the Hook. The last service in this edifice was held in 1896. Unknown if the Hook was transplanted to the new 1897 building. The Estey didn't arrive until 1913. -Jim Stettner
