Notes

2006-11-16 - Identified through information adapted from E. M. Skinner/Aeolian-Skinner Opus List, by Sand Lawn and Allen Kinzey (Organ Historical Society, 1997), and included here through the kind permission of Sand Lawn: Extant; unaltered. -Database Manager

2009-11-01 - Updated through online information from Richard C Greene. -- In 1981, the organ was moved to the chapel in the Motherhouse of the Sisters of St Francis in Rochester and rebuild by Lurth. It has since been replaced with an electronic instrument and parts moved to a location in Texas. -Database Manager

2012-05-11 - Updated through online information from Richard C Greene. -- Basically, the A-SÂ Chapel organ is still installed in the chapel in its original form and stoplist. We did repairs to its consoleÂ in 1983-1984Â and it was in fine condition and frequently played. It is a 2 manual of 14 ranks from the 1930s. The chapel is wonderful and the organ sounds fine. --Charles Hendrickson, 9/1/09 -Database Manager
