2014-02-20 - New console for the existing organ. Identified by Jakeb Silva, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- This organ was originally installed in the church's sanctuary at 222 N Fulton St, Wharton, TX in 1927. The organ was moved from that location in 1972 to the church's present location. However when the move occurred the organ was disassembled moved to the present location and reassembled thus, nothing was done to update the instrument nor was any releathering done. The church kept the organ tuned regularly until the leather in the instrument began to crack causing more problems than the church could afford. So the organ was played for the last time in service in the spring of 2011 and has sat silent ever since. -Database Manager
2014-05-05 - Updated through online information from Jakeb Silva. -- Shortly after this instrument was added, the congregation unanimously voted to rebuild/restore the instrument. Rebuild/restoration began sometime between Easter and the week of May 4, 2014. The rebuild/restoration project is to be handled by Franklin Pipe Organs of Inez, Texas. A date of project completion has either not been set or released by the congregation at this point. -Database Manager
