Notes

2014-09-04 - Identified through information in Casavant documents, courtesy of Simon Couture and Denis Blaine. -Database Manager

2023-10-13 - Instrument is currently playable, but needs some work done on it. The console is orginal. There have been a few tonal alterations. Apparently, these were done in the 1980s. I was told that some of the orginal ranks that were replaced are still extant. Visited the church in September of 2023. -William A. Gaskarth
