Notes

2007-10-22 - Identified by James R. Stettner through information from the Estey Opus List, published in The Boston Organ Club newsletter, 1973-1979. -Database Manager

2022-12-26 - The congregation moved in 1973 to suburban Boardman, merged with another congregation and eventually closed. The old church facility became the Huntington Bank and parts of the sanctuary were swallowed up by remodeling construction, including part of the chancel and the organ chambers. -Jeff Scofield
