Stoplist
There is no nameplate on the console. The church records indicate that the organ was installed in 1908 and replaced what is believed to be a one-manual Stevens. Tremolo is not functioning and there is no indication if it is for the Swell or if the whole instrument is affected as the drawknob is located with the Great stops. There is a drawknob for the Bellows Signal, which is inoperative. Source: Taken from console
