2009-09-22 - Updated through online information from Lawrence Stofer. -- extant Victorian Gothic. rebuilt by Estey 1917, Brandt 1950s, Peebles-Herzog 1990s -Database Manager

2024-07-27 - Updated trough online information from Nicholas Koch (07-23-2024). Original Felgemaker organ is no longer extant. Only the facade remains in largely original condition. The work done to the pipework over the years no longer reflects the quality work or sound associated with Felgemaker. No pipework remains unaltered. Wind pressures were significantly lowered necessitating lowering of cutups and opening of toe holes. -Jim Stettner

2024-08-02 - Current organ is a Brandt-Peebles-Herzog organ within a Felgemaker case. The current organ was installed between 1990-2015. Pedal chests are likely Felgemaker and remain in place since they are too large to move elsewhere. Information received online from Nicholas Koch on 2024-07-23 -Paul R. Marchesano
