2025-01-19 - This instrument was originally purchased by the Church of the Holy Name, Swampscott, MA. from the Belmont School. When the Swampscott church was given a small 3-manual E.M. Skinner organ, the Hutchings organ was given as a gift to the Sanbornville church in 1924. The Hutchings then went through a tonal revision circa 1990 by E.A. Kelley Associates and later finished by an unknown builder. -Rev. Robert Lefebvre, Jr.

2025-02-24 - From the 'History' page of the parish website, "Unique to the church is the only pipe organ in the Wakefield area. The George S. Hutchings, tracker organ was built in 1894. In 1924, it was moved here as a gift from The Holy Name Episcopal Church in Swampscott, Massachusetts." -Jim Stettner
