2010-01-03 - Updated through on-line information from T. Bradford Willis, DDS. -- According to records in the Austin Avenue church archives, the organ which was installed in 1930 was by George Kilgen of St. Louis. I have been unable to find any reference to an organ built by Henry Pilcher's Sons. -Database Manager
