Notes

2011-05-22 - Identified through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -Database Manager

2014-07-29 - Updated through online information from Scot Huntington. -- This organ was revoiced and loudened in the late 1970s/early 1980s, possibly by Eugene Burmaster. The chapel contains a stock-model Schantz unit organ purchased at the same time as the sanctuary organ. -Database Manager
