Notes

2005-12-22 - Identified through information adapted from <i>E. M. Skinner/Aeolian-Skinner Opus List</i>, by Sand Lawn and Allen Kinzey (Organ Historical Society, 1997), and included here through the kind permission of Sand Lawn: <br><i> Rebuild of Skinner Opus 259, previously enlarged by Aeolian in 1926.</i> -Database Manager

2009-08-08 - Updated through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -- This was a rebuild of 1926 Aeolian Op. 1724; replaced by 1965 3/35 Möller Op. 10049. -Database Manager

2013-01-05 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -Database Manager

2014-11-19 - Updated through online information from Hubbard W. McDonald. -- Moved in 1965 by Greenwood Organ Co. to Trinity Methodist Church, Clio, South Carolina; the organ had a poor installation and some repair work. Upon the recommendation of Frederick Swann the organ was dismantled and replaced with an electronic organ with two ranks of speaking pipes. Most of the pipes and the console were given away to a person in Aiken, SC. However, the Aeolian harp and some solo stops in the choir section are still in place. -Database Manager
