Notes

2020-04-09 - This organ reportedly went from St. Paul's Episcopal to St. Peter's R.C. in La Porte. This was likely in 1872 when St. Paul's got their new Steer & Turner. It was later moved from St. Peter's R.C. to St. Patrick's R.C. in Lagro, Indiana where it survives and has been restored. -Database Manager
