Notes

2012-12-11 - Altered and relocated existing organ. Identified by Jeff Scofield, using information found in Factory specifications. -- -Database Manager

2012-12-13 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -Database Manager

2021-08-08 - Updated through online information from Dr. Warren D. Hood, II. -- Peoples Congregational UCC in Washington DC has a 1991 Moller 3/50 instrument and I’m interim O/Ch there. When the organ was installed, preparations were made for a 73 note Harmonic Flute for the Great. Some years after the installation, funds were given and the pipes were installed. It now plays at 8’ & 4’ on the Great. This makes the organ now a 3/51 instrument. -Jim Stettner

2023-11-26 - In late July, 2023 - the organ suffered water damage due to the rain causing the entire Swell division and half of the Pedal division to be silent. The Swell and Pedal is to be back around Spring/Summer 2024. -Storee Denson
