Notes

2005-06-24 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- This organ was originally built for the Arlington, WA. residence of Jence F. Thompson. It was moved to this building - then First Methodist Church - in 1969 by Seattle organ technician and Wicks rep. Charles W. Allen and installed in elevated, side-by-side chambers at the front of the sanctuary. In 1990, the Methodist congregation moved to their new edifice a short distance east, and the building was sold to the Unitarian Universalist congregation from Everett. -Database Manager

NOTES
All of the 8' and 4' stops play for 68 notes except those which have a short
bass octave.  The Great 1-3/5' Dolce Tierce plays for 57 notes before its top
four notes break back one octave in pitch.  The Great 8' Quintadena is a syn-
thetic stop derived from the 8' Doppel Gedeckt at 8' and 2-2/3' pitches. The
Swell 8' Orchestral Oboe is also a synthetic stop derived from the 8' Salic-
ional and the Doppel Gedeckt at 2-2/3' pitch.

In 1969, it was moved by Wicks representative Charles W. Allen of Seattle, WA.
to First Methodist Church in Marysville, which was later sold to Evergreen
Unitarian Universalist Fellowship when [now] First United Methodist built a
new facility and installed a new Wicks.
