2023-08-04 - The earliest record of an organ at St. John’s Norway is the 20-stop, 23-register Casavant Frères Op. 201 (1928). John Stove removed this instrument in 2017, and it became the basis for a hybrid organ at St. Jude’s Anglican Church, Oakville, Ontario. -- *2023 OHS Handbook* -Paul R. Marchesano
