Notes

2012-06-27 - Identified through online information from Randall S. Dyer. -- Addition of a Positiv division of 5 stops installed in an exposed position on the left side of the church, opposite the main organ. At the same time a large-scaled wood 16' Subbass was also added to give the organ more bass. Randall Dyer & Assoc., modified the console with a solid-state combination action and new stop rail to accommodate the additional stops. In 1995 the church installed a three manual console, and the two manual console was sold to Bob Twomey of Cedar Mountain, NC, for his house organ, installed later by Lawrence T. Sprinkle, Weaverville, NC organbuilder. -Database Manager
