Notes

2008-03-07 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2016-02-01 - Updated through online information from Justin Little. <br>This organ appears to have been converted to solid state in very recent years. I think the sign outside the church says the organ was installed in 1945. -Database Manager
