2020-05-20 - Updated throguh online information from Andrew Scanlon, -- This church was an African-American Parish, sister church to St. Paul's Episcopal Chuch. The Parish closed sometime prior to 2012 and the building was rented to another congregation. The organ had not been playable for some years. The console no longer exists, and a reed organ was placed in front of the facade where the console would have been. However, all pipework is intact.
The organ was acquaired by Norman Ryan sometime between 2012 and 2017 and taken to his workshop in Georgetown, Delaware. The present state of the organ is not known. -Jim Stettner
