2007-02-03 - Church records indicate that it was built by Henry Holtkamp (known to be working with Vottler-Hettche 1903-1914). Opened 7 April 1907. (Letter from the organist.) -Database Manager

2021-02-18 - (Moved Note) **Database Manager on December 07, 2016:** This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by William Dunklin, using information found in a vintage post card. A vintage postcard shows a 2-manual organ standing at the left side of the "nave." The lower case work is simple frame and pane. There are decorated facade pipes arranged in three flats. There is no upper casework. The congregation still inhabits this building, though the interior has been extensively modernized. Fate of the organ is unknown. -Jim Stettner
