2009-02-28 - Identified through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -- Replaced by Möller Op. 8352 in 1952. -Database Manager

2021-04-13 - According to the church website, the current organ contains pipes from the original 1917 [sic] organ. 1917 was the date the chapel opened; it is highly likely the contract was signed with Haskell in 1909 as they began to execute the 1908 building design by architect Milton B. Medary, but not installed until some later unknown date. -Paul R. Marchesano
