Notes

2014-06-20 - This is a rebuild of an existing organ. Identified by Timothy Tikker, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- This organ is an enlargement of an earlier Wicks organ. I have not yet ascertained the year the original organ was built and where it was located, or when the organ was rebuilt & enlarged. -Database Manager

2014-06-24 - Updated through online information from Timothy Tikker. -- The organ is located above the main entrance at the rear of the church. The console is on a movable platform near the choir loft at the left side of the church, next to the choir risers. The Great Gemshorn rank is located on the wall above the choir risers. -Database Manager

2014-09-24 - Updated through online information from Timothy Tikker. -- The Swell 8' Viole is only 49 pipes; the low 12 notes are common with the 8' Gedeckt. -Database Manager

2015-02-23 - Updated through online information from Timothy Tikker. -- I have corrected the number of stops, ranks and pipes to reflect that the Pedal 16' & 8' Bourdons are not independent, but are actually extended/borrowed from the Swell 8' Gedeckt. -Database Manager
