Notes

2006-06-18 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- This is a unit organ. It was originally built for the chapel of the Wesley Foundation of Seattle which was housed in the basement of University Temple United Methodist Church. The organ was originally four ranks: Diapason, Flute, Salicional, and Dulciana. The Oboe Horn was added later. In 1970, the organ was relocated to Southminster Presbyterian by Balcom and Vaughan. -Database Manager

2019-06-06 - Updated by Sean Haley, who maintains the organ. The original console was removed in 2017 and the organ was interfaced with a low cost Rodgers digital instrument and turned in to a hybrid. It is presumed some of the speakers were placed in the chamber. The long term prognosis of the pipe voices is questionable as the chests are due for releathering and occasionally prone to cyphers. -Database Manager
