Notes

2004-10-30 - [Hook list shows location as Union Township, NJ.] Unused. Console removed. (listed for sale by OCH in 1977) -Database Manager

2025-02-23 - While the church has not moved, its mailing address has changed several times over the years. The reference to Union Township is correct, but the listed Clinton address was when they had a post office box there. The present address is 2 Race Street, Pittstown, NJ 08867 The organ was replaced with a "large" electronic organ in the 1970s. At that time the pipes were removed and stored. The facade and attached console remained in place. The speakers for the electronic instrument were placed on the wind chests. After a long period of time, the electronic failed and was replaced with another electronic instrument. At that time, the pipework and possibly the chests were removed and possibly sold. The congregation had much love for the facade and kept it in place, although with many layers of paint. -Robert Miller
