Notes

2021-04-28 - Identified through online information from Rose Eide-Altman. -- *We moved it ourselves, the person we bought it from gave us advice, as well as boxes for the pipes, because he had moved it several times. It is a major job with 212 pipes and old wiring, but we got it in place and got it working.* The organ is a stock model, 3-rank 'Petit Ensemble'. **Ed. Note**: the organ was moved from the Eide-Altman residence in Sykesville, Maryland. -Jim Stettner
