Notes
2024-10-04 - This entry represents the installation of a used organ by an unknown person or firm. Identified through online information from John Widmann (September 29, 2024). -Jim Stettner
2024-10-04 - Updated through online information from John Widmann (October 4, 2024): Jimmy Baird rebuilt the organ. The organ had been built by Walcker for a parochial school in Nicaragua. It survived 2 volcanic eruptions there, and was damaged. It had found its way to a private owner in McLean, VA. Jimmy had helped the private owner get it working on a limited basis. It required a lot of cleaning from volcanic damage. The bottom octave of the principal was lost, along with the entire Octave 4, and the Salicional.
Jimmy replaced the Salicional with a Dulciana from an "Early American Builder". I don't think he knows what one. It still reads "Salicional" on the drawknob.
Jimmy replaced the 4' Octave with a new rank of pipes made by "A French Manufacturer", still not sure which one.
Jimmy replaced the bottom of the 8' Principal with an octave of repurposed Moller open woods.
