Notes

2004-10-30 - This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified from the Ed Boadway Hinner opus list (which gives date as 1919). Stoplist in Richmond. -Database Manager

2023-02-04 - Good Shepherd Lutheran Church is now the sole owner of the Hinners. The group identified legally as Bethany Lutheran deeded the church and all its contents, including the Hinners, before they left the premises to build a new church building. This split took place in 2010. Good Shepherd Lutheran Church of Norway was incorporated at that time and is comprised of the primary members who voted to stay in the original church building (built in 1880) which houses the Hinners and all the other church furnishings (from around 1900). -Rev. Michael J. Langlais
