Notes
2005-06-16 - Identified through information in <i>Descriptive Catalogue of Superior Church Organs Manufactured by Geo. H. Ryder & Co.</i>, published in Boston, January, 1896. Dates are not included in the publication; the one given here is conjectural. -Database Manager
2008-07-31 - Updated through on-line information from M W Baines. -- The organ has not been used during most of the last 2 decades. A blower was added at some point, but nothing else about the instrument was changed. There are numerous "blow boy" signatures on the back of the case. There has been extensive termite damage to parts of the keydesk, some key covers and stop names are missing. Pipe work is in excellent condition. -Database Manager
