Notes

2007-11-05 - Identified by Jeff Scofield through information in Möller factory documents. -Database Manager

2010-01-01 - Updated through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -Database Manager

2025-02-26 - Updated through online information from Brad Cunningham (February 22, 2025): I grew up in Augusta where my father was an associate pastor at FBC. ID=30787 was used in the church gym during the time when the congregation worshiped in the gym before the church was built. The left & right chambers and console were mounted on movable platforms and stored in a storage room during the week. In my junior year of college, I played a recital on the instrument for the "old folks" group. ID=30787 was sold after the church was built and a four-manual Schantz was installed. I do not know to whom 30787 was sold. -Jim Stettner
