Notes

2005-06-28 - Identified through information in <i>Classified List of Hall Organs</i>, published in 1929 by Hall Organ Co., West Haven, Connecticut. -Database Manager

2021-10-04 - The church had its last service August 31, 2014. The building had structural issues. Disposition of the Hall organ is unknown. An online article on NJ.com dated August 31, 2014 stated,* In the 1970s the descendents of the faithful who raised the church put together the funds necessary for a massive pipe organ, one of the largest in South Jersey. On Sunday the organ boomed its final Sunday service.* -Jim Stettner
