Notes

2012-11-26 - This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by Jeff Scofield, using information found in <i>The Diapason</i> November 1960. -- -Database Manager

2012-11-28 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- The church had to relocate ca. 1957 due to Interstate highway construction; the organ was put into storage and then installed by Wicks at the new location in a "gymnasium-type" hall to be used until the new sanctuary was to be built. -Database Manager
