Notes

2007-11-25 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2011-07-11 - Updated through on-line information from Matt Gillis. -- All pipes are enclosed in one swell box to the right of the baptistry. Facade pipes on both sides of baptistry are non-functional. -Database Manager

2013-01-21 - Updated through online information from Jonathan M. Bowen. -- The opus number above is for the 1st Moller organ that was installed in 1927. That organ was replaced with the current organ stoplist above in 1980 when the church was renovated. Opus 4962 was 7 ranks, installed in the center of the front of the church, behind the choir loft. The ranks of that organ were: Diapason 8, Stopped Diapason 8, Melodia 8, Salicional 8, Dulciana 8, Oboe 8 and Pedal Bourdon 16. At this time, I cannot recall the actual stop list. When the church was renovated in the 1980, the organ chamber was moved to the right of center where a baptistry was installed. On each side of the baptistry there is a tower of display pipes. It does appear to have 2 chambers, but not so. The present organ is what was called a "Series 80" organ, with 6 ranks. The room seats approx. 800 people. -Database Manager

2016-08-16 - Received a new console in 1964 as Moller Op. M-225; rebuilt in 1980 as Moller Op. R-107, retaining three ranks and the 1964 console. -Database Manager
