2023-08-22 - The pre-history of the present instrument begins in 1885 with the Samuel Warren organ built for the church on Sussex Avenue. In 1891 S.R. Warren installed a 2-manual, 23-stop organ in the present church structure, with an attached console on the Epistle (right) side. Casavant’s Op. 459 (3 manuals, 40 stops, enclosed Choir division, console on the Gospel side) dates from 1911. -- *2023 OHS Handbook* It is not clear, but likely that the 1885 organ was incorporated into the new organ built in 1891 for the new structure. -Paul R. Marchesano
