2019-08-12 - This organ was originally built in 1840 for the French Episcopal Church du St. Esprit, located at Franklin and Church Streets in New York City. The 1840 organ originally had a G-compass: manuals were GGG to f' (58 notes), and the pedal compass was CCC to C (25 notes). In 1863, the French church was sold at auction, and the Erben organ was bought by the Episcopal Church of the Mediator, who had the organ moved and installed in their current building. That building was purchased with the organ by First Moravian in 1869. -Database Manager
