Notes

2013-08-31 - A relocated organ. -- The second organ in St. Joseph's Hall was built in 1934 by Casavant Frères for the Paul A. Fancher residence in Clinton, N.Y. In 1945, Mr. Fancher donated the organ to the church, in memory of his wife, Edith. The organ had two manuals and six unified ranks, and was entirely enclosed (except for the 8' Open Diapason on the Great). At some point, the organ was moved to the theatre on the second floor of the parish house. In 1992, the organ was sold to a private individual in Canada. -Database Manager

2014-09-07 - From a note by Jeff Scofield, 2010: -- Moved by Ross Dodington in 1993 to Elora United Church, Elora, Ontario, and merged with the church's 1930 Woodstock organ. -Database Manager
