Notes

2007-08-23 - Identified through on-line information from Roger W. Kling. -- I recently acquired the organ. It was presented to the organist when she retired. She had an addition built on her house to house the instrument. I purchased the organ from the current home owner who had dismantled and restored everything but the resevoir 18 to 20 years ago. He never reinstalled the instrument in his home. -Database Manager

2007-08-23 - Estey Opus 465 was originally built for and installed at Epiphany Mission, Episcopal, Sherwood Philadelphia, PA. There is a picture of the organ on the Estey web site showing the organ as installed in the organist's home. Yes, it was sunken into the floor! I don't know why that was done since the room had sufficient ceiling height to accomodate the instrument. Also, because the organ was placed below the floor level, the bottom framing was badly eaten by termites. -Database Manager
