2024-08-08 - From the NYC AGO Organ Project, Steven Lawson: The congregation has worshipped in three separate church buildings all on the same site. The “Octagon Church” was built in 1663 and was enlarged in 1762. This building was replaced altogether in 1794. The third and present building, with its simple clapboard siding, multi-paned windows, and tall steeple, is a notable example of rural Greek Revival design, was built in 1848. This building has a history of being hit by lightning as well as surviving fires; the last lighting strike in 1952 caused minimal damage, but the fire in 1974 destroyed most of the church’s interior. In each case, the congregation worshipped in the auditorium while repairs were made. The first known organ was a 2/14 installed before 1911 b Reuben Midmer; A new organ by M.P. Möller was installed in 1964. Known as a "Double Artiste" model, the organ had two enclosures and a detached console. This organ seems to have been destroyed or damaged after a fire in 1974; 2/13 Moller Op. 11230 was installed in 1977. -Jeff Scofield
