Notes

2007-03-08 - Note from Stan Scheer: replaced by Op. 3134 Casavant Frères Op. 3134 and dispersed. -Database Manager

2019-05-15 - Updated by James David Mason (OHS member), who has heard or played the organ. <br> <br>The information is from my notes, ca. 1971, from personal examination of the instrument. This was my family church, and I, working in Knoxville, TN, was one of the consultants for the church in the project that eventually resulted in the replacement of this instrument by Casavant Op. 3134 (1972). -Database Manager
