Notes

2024-04-24 - This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified from the 'History' page of the parish website which states, "St. Ann Church was also a center for music, especially beginning in 1902, with the installation of a J.G. Pfeffer pipe organ donated in the memory of parish family matriarch, Margaret Downey. Local papers and parish family recollections are rich with memories of concerts and a stellar music program." The organ was removed sometime in the 20th century for reasons unknown. The disposition of the original Pfeffer is not known. -Jim Stettner
