Notes

2007-09-21 - Identified through online information from Stephen Hall. -- New organ but used some pipe work from previous Pilcher. Relocated to new sanctuary in 1986 by Klug and Schumaker who also added many of the prepared for stops. Still contains all the AS pipe work and console. Most of the prepared for stops were added when the organ was relocated to the new sanctuary in 1987. Additional ranks added since that time including some not in original specification. -Database Manager
