Notes

2005-04-07 - 56n man, 19n ped. Build for St. Louis Fair. As this congregation was organized in 1859, the organ was probably transferred to them then. They broke ground for a new building in June 1860 which was not built, and the congregation disbanded. The handwritten list indicates that this organ later went to First Presbyterian, Jacksonville, IL (Old Op. 48) -Database Manager

2005-04-07 - Identified through information in the Pilcher factory ledgers, a handwritten list of organs and notes on the firm's history, and an emended copy of a list of organs from a catalog c. 1870. For more information see the document referenced below. In the first lists, this organ was originally assigned number 24. -Database Manager
