Notes

2005-12-24 - 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> Replaced Fritsche rebuild of E. M. Skinner Opus 297 (1919).</i> -Database Manager

2009-10-05 - Updated by Riley Wes Mitchell from information furnished by Casavant Frères, courtesy of Simon Couture. -Database Manager

2010-06-03 - Updated through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -- Trompette en Chamade added by Casavant in 1982; a 2003 project to rebuild the organ and add many digital stops ended when the unnamed company was unable to fulfill the contract; Robert I. Coulter was later contracted to restore the organ in phases. -Database Manager

2016-11-08 - Johannus console and electronics added at some point; these components were seriously damaged by lightning in September 2016. -Database Manager

2020-11-03 - The Casavant console was relocated to Harrow United Church, Harrow, Ontario, by Dodington & Dodington to be combined with used Casavant windchest and miscellaneous pipework. -Jeff Scofield
