Notes

2009-05-27 - Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- Originally built for St. John's Evang. Lutheran in American Falls, Idaho. This is a standard, stock model 2/3 "Portable". It was relocated to Troy without tonal changes or additions by a firm or organ technician from Oregon. The church built an extension at the rear of the church to house the organ. It is entirely under expression. The console is at the rear of the sanctuary in the right corner with the organist facing across the chancel. -Database Manager

2014-07-14 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ was re-leathered in July 2014 by Puget Sound Pipe Organs of Stanwood, Washington. While the windchests were open, we found writing inside one of the offset Pedal chests that stated the organ was installed November 4,5,6, 1996 by T. Grant Sprague of the Bond firm in Portland, Oregon. -Database Manager
