Notes

2004-10-30 - Rebuilt by Tellers, then by Schlicker 1950. -Database Manager

2006-12-31 - Updated through online information from David Snyder. -- Organ was moved to the front of the church during Tellers rebuild, where it remained. Pipes were eventually removed by Delaware and some were used for a new organ by that firm built for Pilgrim-St. Luke's United Church Of Christ at West Ferry Street and Richmond Avenue, Buffalo, New York. -Database Manager

2024-12-27 - The Buffalo Freie Presse (August 26, 1883) reported that the organ had 1,914 pipes (696 on the Grosse claviatur (I); 580 on the Swell orgel (II); 348 on the Solo orgel; 90 on the Pedal orgel). The instrument was opened with a recital by Frederick Archer of New York on August 25, 1886. -Andrew Henderson
