Notes

2022-06-11 - This entry represents the first installation of a new organ. Identified from the Tellers opus list. Cost recorded as being $1,450.00. -Jim Stettner

2024-02-01 - This organ originally had tubular-pneumatic key and stop actions. The original double-rise reservoir and three feeders for hand-pumping are still extant inside the left-side case, as is the original feeder crankshaft. The console has always detached, but was likely moved to its current location in the gallery when the key and stop actions were electrified. The electrification may have been done by Mr. Ernest C. Vogelpohl of New Ulm, MN. -Josh Sellner
