Notes

2009-10-28 - Identified through information in <i>List of More than 5200 Moller Pipe Organs</i> (Hagerstown, Maryland. M. P. Möller, 1928). -Database Manager

2012-02-24 - Updated through online information from Jack Umholtz. -- St. Paul's Evangelical became St. Paul's Evangelical United Brethren with the 1946 merger, then St. Paul's United Methodist with the mid-1960's merger. The organ was rebuilt and very slightly altered tonally, along with the installation of a new console by Clair Snyder in the mid to late 1970's. -Database Manager
