Notes

2016-01-01 - Organ relocated without any change. Identified by Rodney J. Weed, based on personal knowledge of the organ.<br><br>This organ was moved to my home at the beginning of November, 2015 and is currently in the process of being reassembled by me in my basement. Since the original builder's plate was probably lost while the organ was at Annunciation Church I have had a replica of the original Geo. Kilegn and Son builder's plate made and installed in the same spot the original Kilgen builder's plate would have been mounted. I am making no changes to this organ from the way it has been since 1977. -Database Manager

2016-06-25 - Updated through online information from Rodney J Weed. <br>The organ is basically set up and played almost daily. I rarely use the tremolo so I have not set it up and am in no rush to do so. The organ when originally installed in 1933 in Annunciation Church in Green Bay, WI was completely enclosed in a chamber on the left (North) side of the choir loft with console situated in the center of the choir loft facing the East wall of the church with the organist's back to the sanctuary. Since my house is quite small, I did not put the organ in a chamber; however, I have all of the original swell shades, frame for the swell shades and original swell engine to operate the swell shades should I ever want to place the organ under expression. -Database Manager
