Notes

2016-12-23 - An original installation. Identified by Twila Robar-DeCoste, based on personal knowledge of the organ. <br>The organ was originally installed in the balcony in 1862, with some of the upper case work being lowered to fit. It was moved to the main floor chancel extension in 1890. The only alterations since then are electric bellows added in the 1960s. The hand pump is still usable. It is used every Sunday and given annual maintenance. -Database Manager
