Notes

2007-08-28 - Identified by Jeff Scofield through information in Möller factory documents. -Database Manager

2011-08-18 - Updated through online information from Dan Talbot. -- There were rodent problems a few years back, but the church recently had it cleaned. Some touch-up voicing is being talked about. The swell shades continue to give trouble as they've done since the organ was accepted. I was the person that did the final acceptance for the church. -Database Manager
