Notes

2004-10-30 - Status Note: There 1993 -Database Manager

2004-10-30 - From St. Agnes Morning Chapel, NYC. 2nd hand c. 1946. Badly damaged by termites. Previous rector sold much of pipework. Much of pipework used in new Klug & Schumacher [for whom?]. Organ being repaired 1993 by Thurlow Weed. -Database Manager

2007-11-18 - Updated through online information from Thurlow Weed. -- Organ restoration stopped due to lack of funds, and relocation of MofM. The two Pedal ranks remained, but were later sold. 8' Bass Flöte, destination unknown. 16' Bourdon was re-installed (with chest?) at St Paul's Episcopal Church in Key West. (Organ there is rebuilt/enlarged 13/IIP 1929 Frazee, now 42/IVP 6Div.) All that remains of Odell is framework/case/Sw&Gr chests/playing desk/double-rise reservoir. Remaining parts are believed in decent enough condition to be salvageable. -Database Manager
