Notes

2006-01-08 - 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> Relocated from the residence of J. Harold MacDowell, Larchmont, N.Y.</i> -Database Manager

2008-08-28 - Updated through online information from John Elwood. -- Sister Martha Counihan relates that the organ is located in an area of Chiswick Hall that has "been closed to the public for many years because of fire regulations". The UNR facilities manager states "I haven't been up there in a while; however, the last time I was it was in pieces and parts of it were thrown out. At any rate, if there is any of it left it is not in working order" -Database Manager
