Notes

2011-05-02 - Updated through online information from Allan Dieball. -- I played this organ for a wedding on April 30, 2011. It seemed to be in good condition overall. A member of the parish told me that it is used regularly. It looks and sounds to me like it is in original, unaltered condition, but I do not know that for certain. A comment on a blog gives the date as 1908. -Database Manager

2015-08-10 - Updated through online information from Josh Sellner. -- According to the Vogelpohl & Spaeth company ledger in the possession of the Brown County Historical Society, the organ cost $2,075 when it was installed in 1908. -Database Manager
