Notes

2020-12-16 - Updated through online information from Larry Pruett. -- This instrument was removed from First Presbyterian Church, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in the late 1940s or early 1950s and installed in St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Columbia, Pennsylvania, with a new console and without the original antiphonal division which remained in 1st Presbyterian, Lancaster. In the mid 1990s, St. Pauls replaced the organ with an electronic substitute and much of the Austin Pipework was used in an instrument for St. Andrew's United Methodist Church, Valley View, Pennsylvania. -Paul R. Marchesano

2020-12-16 - This installation describes an unknown [local?] builder moving the organ from Lancaster to Columbia in the late 1940s or early 1950s. It did not incorporate any pipework from the Miller pipe organ. -Paul R. Marchesano
