2009-10-11 - Updated through online information from Gregg Patruno. -- As of 2009, the church website describes the instrument as a Schantz III/53. So, the 1914 Moller III/54 was either replaced or substantially rebuilt between 1998 and 2009. -Database Manager
2011-12-19 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- Had a Momentary Tremulant that "enables the player to command a vibrato on the sustained notes of a melody without intruding that disturbing effect on the quicker notes." Received a new Schantz console (only) as Op. 1813 in 1985. -Database Manager
2016-10-11 - Rebuilt and electrified in 1947 as Moller Op. R-275; rebuilt again in 1947 as Moller Op. R-578; rebuilt by somebody else in 1985, at which time the console was replaced in 1985 by Schantz as Op. 1813. -Database Manager
