Notes
2007-09-18 - Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ was originally built for the congregation's 2nd edifice (1925). It has 5 ranks: Diapason, Flute, Viole d'Amour, Viole Celeste, and Oboe. However, the placement of the celeste tabs and their much whiter color leads one to conclude that this was a replacement rank. It is quite different in scale than the Viole d'Amour. And it is not unlikely that it may have replaced an original 8' Vox Humana. The console was disconnected some years ago and the organ - while completely intact - is mute. The church is presently considering selling/donating the organ, and has already contacted the Pipe Organ Foundation of Mercer Island, Washington. -Database Manager

NOTES (2007)
The organ was originally built for the congregation's 2nd edifice (1925). In
1968, it was moved to their new edifice by an unknown person or firm. It has
5 ranks: Diapason, Flute, Viole d'Amour, Viole Celeste, and Oboe. However, the
placement of the Celeste tabs and their much whiter color leads one to conclude
that this was a replacement rank. It is quite different in scale than the Viole
d'Amour. And it is not unlikely that it may have replaced an original 8' Vox
Humana. The console was disconnected some years ago and the organ - while
completely intact - is mute. The church is presently considering selling or
donating the organ, and has already contacted the Pipe Organ Foundation of
Mercer Island, Washington. The organ was removed to storage, and advertised
for sale by the church on barton.theatreorgans.com in August 2008. It was
subsequently purchased by David Johnston of Leavenworth, Washington and instal-
led by him in his home.
