Notes

2021-10-11 - Known from an early photograph of the interior of the 1869 structure shows an old organ with a recessed keydesk, but it appears to be larger than a 1-12, and may be later than 1869. -- information from *1986 OHS Handbook* -Paul R. Marchesano

2021-10-11 - There were two other Presbyterian churches in Dubuque in 1869: First, which put up a building in 1852 and replaced it in 1894; and Second, which was founded in 1856 and which put up their second building in 1869. (These two churches merged in 1903 as Westminster Presbyterian, and moved into the Second Presbyterian Church building of 1869.) -Paul R. Marchesano
