Notes

2016-02-04 - This organ was originally built in 1949 for the Fourth Church of Christ, Scientist, by the Wicks Organ Company, and had 9 ranks of pipes. In 1983, the organ was enlarged to 16 ranks by the Schantz Organ Company of Orrville, Ohio. In 2015, as the building was renovated for use by the Berkeley Carroll School, the organ was removed and placed in storage. -Database Manager
