Notes

2009-11-12 - Identified through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -- The contract was for additions, new console, reengineering and moving the organ to a new location. -Database Manager

2025-01-31 - The console has been rebuilt by Fabry organ company. As of mid January, the antiphonal division is taken out for restoration. All of the 32' stops are resultants including the 32' Bombarde which comprises of the 16' Double Trumpet in the pedal. The 32' Lieblich Gedackt is from the 16' Subbass in the pedal. Extra drawknobs have been added to accommodate possible new ranks. Fabry proposed the addition of a chamade trumpet in the antiphonal. If that will actually be added in the future is unknown. -Ethan Morris
