Notes
2011-04-24 - Identified through on-line information from Nathan Smith. -- Organ internal mechanisms and pipes were removed in 1970 in favor of an electronic substitute. Only casework with facade pipes, keydesk, pedal-board, bench, blower, and outer swell-shutter frame remain. Organ appears to have been fully or nearly fully-enclosed based on positioning of shade frame. Church property and buildings were donated by financier J.P. Morgan. -Database Manager
