Notes

2022-11-22 - This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified from information on the Troy Irish Geneology Society website, which states, *"The sanctuary of the church features detailed gothic-style woodwork. There was a beautiful new Steer and Turner organ, whose “volume could easily compete with the whistles of Albany Northern Railroad locomotives and the steamboats on the Hudson, with the rattle of horse cars of 3rd Ave. and the shouts of drovers on the Erie Canal” In 1919 an electric pump was installed and in 1946 chimes were added, a gift of Mrs. & Mrs. Guy Beattie."* -Jim Stettner
