2008-12-21 - Identified through information published in John Ferguson's <i>Walter Holtkamp: American Organ Builder</i> (DMA treatise, Eastman School of Music, 1976). Although neither Votteler-Holtkamp-Sparling nor their successor Holtkamp Organ Co. assigned Opus numbers to their instruments, this organ was identified in factory documents as Job number 1661. That number appears here as the Opus number of this instrument. -Database Manager
2009-06-13 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- Moved by Holtkamp from old chapel to 1,600-seat McGaw Chapel (also used by Westminster Presbyterian Church) in 1971 as Job No. 1877, at which time it was renovated; it was extensively renovated again in 1993. -Database Manager
