Notes

2004-10-30 - Originally built for St. John's Chapel, a mission of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Rochester, N.Y. St. John's Chapel merged with St. Mark's Church in October 1922, so the Odell organ may have been moved to Wakefield-Grace Methodist shortly thereafter. -Database Manager

2015-03-12 - Following a fire on December 23, 1989, the organ was refurbished and altered: the 8' Dulciana on the Great was replaced with a 2' Principal, and an 8' Oboe was added to the Swell (using the unneeded Blower's Signal knob). -Database Manager
