Notes

2004-10-30 - Status Note: There 1980. -Database Manager

2004-10-30 - Original location unknown. Installed here by William F. Smith in 1908. -Database Manager

2018-04-12 - Updated by Fr. George Hafemann, who has heard or played the organ. <br> I visited the organ on April 11, 2018. Parts of two ranks have been removed from the Great by an unknown party, though the pipes are stored in trays in the gallery. There is a relatively modern Zephyr blower in an isolation box. The organ is somewhat playable but fully restorable. -Database Manager
