Notes

2004-10-30 - From First (later Porter Street) Presbyterian, Manchester (later annexed to Richmond), VA. Rebuilt Geo. Taylor 1969, 1-13. Stoplist in Richmond. -Database Manager

2008-09-29 - Updated through on-line information from Jeff McConnaughey. -- I grew up in Amelia and was friends with George Taylor when this organ was moved and rebuilt. Rudolph von Beckerath voiced the principal chorus as a favor to George. This is an exquisite instrument. -Database Manager

2022-02-24 - The relocation and rebuild was Taylor & Boody Op. 1 (1969). -Jeff Scofield
