Notes

2012-01-02 - Rebuild of existing Hutchings-Votey Organ of ca. 1908. Identified through online information from Jeff Scofield. -Database Manager

2013-05-25 - The Bellefield Presbyterian web site states the church was First Presbyterian until the 1960s, when the name was changed. And this appears to be the rebuilt Hutchings-Votey organ relocated to Barre, VT in 1989 by Russell & Co. However, this is conjecture as of the 2013 OHS Vermont Convention. -Database Manager

2015-07-18 - Updated through online information from Joseph Tuttle. -- This instrument relocated to Bower Hill Community Presbyterian Church, Pittsburgh, PA. The prepared-for Pedal reed extension was added at that time. 3-manual 1963 Moller console replaced in the early 2000s by a second-hand 4-manual console. -Database Manager
