Notes

2009-05-10 - Identified through online information from Ray Ahrens. -- Pipes in rear gallery, console on main floor near altar. -Database Manager

2010-06-25 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- The Swell I and II division stops have 61 pipes per rank, but retain the 56-note keyboard; this was done so that the coupled division would have an effective compass of 49 notes. -Database Manager
