Notes

2008-04-11 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2012-04-30 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- The church moved to a suburban location after my visit in June 1998; not known if the organ went along. I doubt if it did in its present form; at the time of my visit, the organ had recently sustained severe water damage and needed some serious work. -Database Manager

2013-04-18 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- Just before my visit in June 1998, the organ had sustained serious water damage; the old downtown church buildings were sold to Georgia College in 2005 to become the Student Activities Center; the sanctuary was converted into The Magnolia Ballroom. -Database Manager
