Notes

2008-05-19 - Identified through information adapted from E. M. Skinner/Aeolian-Skinner Opus List, by Sand Lawn and Allen Kinzey (Organ Historical Society, 1997), and included here through the kind permission of Sand Lawn: Dedication recital played by William E. Zeuch on February 11, 1951; extant; unaltered; mechanically overhauled by A. Thompson Allen in 1965. -Database Manager

2023-02-04 - Unconfirmed information from a former organist said this was an electrification and rebuild of an older organ, unknown builder, believed to be a tracker installed when the building was new. The organ reuses parts of an older case front. -Scot Huntington
