Notes

2009-06-22 - Identified through information in <i>List of More than 5200 Moller Pipe Organs</i> (Hagerstown, Maryland. M. P. Möller, 1928). -Database Manager

2012-03-12 - Updated through online information from Stephen Hall. -- Rebuild of existing John Brown organ of 1906, converting tubular-pneumatic action to electric action and reducing the number of ranks from 47 to 39. Further changes made by Möller in 1931, Tellers in 1940 and 1949, Thomas Schaettle in 1967, and a complete rebuild by Shenandoah Organ Studios (1991) with two new consoles and preparation for new chancel division.
