Notes

2010-07-17 - Identified through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- Originally installed by Wicks in 1961 as a 3/14; the 1977 work was the addition of two stops to the Great, five to the pedal and a new 9-stop Rueck-Positiv; rebuilt by Wicks with tonal changes and new console in 2005. -Database Manager
