Notes

2006-01-19 - 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> Built in Westfield; extant; unaltered.</i> -Database Manager

2020-05-11 - As of 2018 the organ is extant, playable, in good condition, and in regular use. The company "Barger and Nix" from McDonald, TN had updated the organ's mechanical state including a very small memory system and added one stop (oboe). The entire organ is enclosed with the exception of the Great Open Diapason, which provides most of the instrument's power for leading hymn singing. Small but lovely organ. -Andrew Scanlon

2023-10-02 - The organ is currently experiencing electrical issues. The cause is unknown. The connection from the console to the pipes is sometimes lost and will glitch or "lag." This can happen quite often depending on the day. The organ is currently playable if you are brave. -Colton Barber

2023-12-08 - The electrical issue with the organ has been repaired. The cause was later found to be defect in the upgraded MIDI system. -Colton Barber
