Notes

2006-11-24 - 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> No information.</i> -Database Manager

2011-11-09 - Updated through online information from Alex Smith. -- According to the website of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, the church was founded in 1760 by the Church of Sweden (Lutheran), which was very close in theology and polity to the Church of England. Christ Church is one of the four surviving "Old Swedes" churches in Pennsylvania; all are now Episcopal churches. (Aeolian Skinner Archives) -Database Manager
