2023-01-07 - This entry represents the electrification of the original 1867 Wm. A. Johnson organ. Unknown if it was on new chests, or original chests with E-P pull-downs. The casework was retained, but side wings were likely added at this time. The resulting organ was also now 3-manuals. Identified from the book: Johnson Organs, 1844-1898: Wm. A Johnson, Johnson Organ Co., Johnson & Son: a documentary issued in honor the two hundredth anniversary of his birth, 1816-2016 / by Scot L. Huntington, Len Levasseur, Barbara Owen, Stephen L.
