Notes
2008-11-27 - Identified through on-line information from Stephen Hall. -- This was the addition of a used two-manual Möller as an antiphonal organ, playable from its own console or from the chancel console. Enlarged in 1993 as part of the revision of the entire organ. -Database Manager
2011-06-25 - The 1993 additions were from the Echo pipes from the 1916 Felgemaker organ. After they quit playing in 1972, they were left untouched in the old Echo chamber. -Database Manager
