Notes

2008-12-23 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- This was the rebuilding on new chests of the Temple's previous 2/18, ca. 1907 Hutchings-Votey. A new console, new Kilgen-style E-P unit chests, new Tremolo, and tonal changes were all included. The original H-V chests were used in another project down in Tacoma. The fate of the H-V console is unknown. The rebuilt organ was later replaced by an electronic substitute, and was moved by Richard Warburton to St. Dunstan's Episcopal in N. Seattle with further tonal changes. This information is from the Balcom and Vaughan files and an examination of the extant, relocated organ. -Database Manager
