Notes

2005-02-17 - Identified from company publications as edited and expanded in <i>The Hook Opus List 1829-1935</i>, ed. William T. Van Pelt (Organ Historical Society, 1991). -Database Manager

2016-06-24 - Updated through online information from Steve Bartley. <br>The Mt Hope Retreat was a Catholic mental hospital, started in the 1860s. In the late 1940s it was renamed "Seaton Institute", which closed in the late 1960s, early 70s. The property was abandoned for decades, the main building containing the chapel, being demolished first. A Google search will provide information about the building(S). Some research in the Arch Dionysian archives will reveal more information. -Database Manager
