Notes

2007-07-26 - Identified through online information from Douglas W. Craw. -- This organ was replaced by a Casavant in 2000 and sold to a church in Cincinnati, Ohio. -Database Manager

2009-06-29 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- Replaced in 2001 by 3/61 Casavant Op. 3796 -Database Manager

2012-02-16 - Updated through online information from Kristina Powers. -- as a student at the Wheaton College Community School of the Arts Suzuki violin school from 1996-2000; saw the organ regularly when performing at concerts within the Edmund Chapel. Also witnessed posters for its farewell concert posted throughout the college and noticed its removal from the chapel in December 2000. I saw the new Casavant when performing in the chapel in 2004 and 2005. Learned via online research that the organ's new home is Sycamore Presbyterian Church in Cincinnati, Ohio. Some of the original pipework was incorporated into the new Casavant; learned via online research. -Database Manager
