Tellers). This substantial-looking instrument can be seen here -<br> http://www.christumcmarietta.org/wp-content/cache/thumbnails/2016/05/historyBNR-1170x500-c.jpg<br><br>In 1969, Trinity Methodist Episcopal merged with First Methodist, creating Christ United Methodist Church (still in the 1885 building). In 1986, the Trinity building was sold, and Christ/First Methodist installed a Klais tracker organ from Germany. What happened to the Felgemaker isn't known. -Database Manager
