Notes
2023-09-20 - Brief timeline of this organ from J.R. Daniels, who was previously organist of this church:
-1886 Hilborne Roosevelt, built in the Baltimore Shop, and moved to this building in 1901 from the previous church possibly by Adam Stein. 2-man and 25 ranks.
-1939 Electrified and reduced in size by Wicks. 1939 changes resulted in 11 ranks, 7 of which were original Roosevelt. Worked on again in the 1960s, also by Wicks, and the current console is Wicks from that period.
