Notes

2007-11-28 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2014-01-06 - Updated through online information from Robert Miller. -- Organ is used regularly. Placement in room is unusual in that room is wider than long with chancel in center of long wall with radiating rows of pews on a sloped floor. Facing the chancel area, choir seating and console are located to the right of chancel area on same wall with console in a fixed position. Pipe chamber is in what would be a gallery position on end wall to right of choir. The organ speaks down the long axis of the room. There are a few non speaking display pipes with cloth covered panels in front of a divided chamber. Organ is enclosed in two swell boxes. Looking at the chamber from the floor, Swell is in left chamber and Great/Choir is on right. Pedal is divided between the two chambers. -Database Manager

2019-04-18 - Updated by Gregory Stout, who has heard or played the organ. <br> <br>A Cornopean rank was added to the swell (date unknown) as a memorial donation. The stop tab for the 16’ swell Bourdon was repurposed for the Cornopean and a new switch was installed for Bourdon to the left of the swell tabs, which can only be turned on or off manually. The Bourdon stop tab is covered with a stick-on label reading “Cornopean.” -Database Manager
