Notes

2005-11-21 - Updated through on-line information from James R. Stetther. -- A gift of a wealthy parishioner. Keydesk detached with organist still facing case - back to the altar. Asymmetrical case with Pedal at the far left, Hauptwerk in the center, Positiv on the right at the top, and Schwellwerk on the right beneath the Positiv. This organ replaced a small, II-manual, 4-rank M. P. Möller damaged in a church fire. -Database Manager
