2010-02-20 - Identified by Rae Bolton from information furnished by Casavant Frères, courtesy of Simon Couture. -Database Manager

2010-05-02 - Updated through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -Database Manager

2024-04-17 - The organ was moved to Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church in Essex MD in Fall 1973. An organ blower in 2019 rendered the organ useless. A 3 manual Rodgers Trillium organ was installed inside the Casavant casework. I helped moved and install the Casavant in 1973. Information from: Mark Hurley on 2024-03-29 -Paul R. Marchesano
