Notes

2008-07-05 - 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> Mechanical action; has both AEolianSkinner and Robert Sipe nameplates.</i> -Database Manager

2017-02-18 - Updated by Scott Crowell, naming this as the source of information: November 2009 American Organist, pages 64-65. <br> This was intended to be an Aeolian-Skinner organ, but the company went bankrupt before the organ was completed. Robert Sipe finished and installed the organ 1973. The organ was restored in 2009 by Taylor & Boody Organbuilders. -Database Manager

2019-08-21 - Updated by William Dunklin, who has heard or played the organ. The 16\' Pedal Bourdon and 8\' Swell Celeste were retained from the church\'s Pilcher organ. -Database Manager
