Notes

2010-07-30 - Identified through on-line information from Chad Boorsma. -- The organ was given by the John R. English family in honor of Carol Jean English. It was dedicated on October 8, 1989. The instrument has a Möller console that was originally installed in 1974 at All Saints Church (Episcopal) in Wynnewood, PA, as their Opus R-910. The bottom manual is prepared for an Antiphonal Division, but can also be used to play the Great or Swell stops. -Database Manager
