Notes
2008-03-18 - Identified through information adapted from <i>E. M. Skinner/Aeolian-Skinner Opus List</i>, by Sand Lawn and Allen Kinzey (Organ Historical Society, 1997), and included here through the kind permission of Sand Lawn: <br><i> Replaced 1929 4/50 Kilgen; additions in 1948, #1083-A (four ranks); revoiced by Midwest Organ Co. in 1981; essentially intact.</i> -Database Manager
2014-10-24 - Updated through online information from Christopher Kiepper. -- I am Director of Music and Organist and curator of the organ. -Database Manager
2020-12-30 - From the Wicks website in 2020: "Phase one completed. Following initial evaluation of the instrument, Phase one of this project involved a complete releathering of the Console, Great, Swell, Positive and Choir relay pneumatic’s in order to get the instrument into a playable state in which to further evaluate its preservation needs. This stepped approach has given the congregation a playable instrument, and is allowing them to raise funds for further restoration work in manageable segments." -Jeff Scofield
