Notes

2004-10-30 - Rebuilt by Akright. Destroyed by fire with building c. 1982. -Database Manager

2009-05-26 - Updated through on-line information from Michael A. Way. -- A typical "Akron Plan" church. Which placed the organ in a corner shaped case at the right-hand corner of the room relative to the diagonal center aisle leading from the main entry to the chancel/altar area. I played this organ several times but failed to write down the specs. The instrument still had its complete hand-winding mechanism but a blower was routinely used. -Database Manager
