Notes

2004-10-30 - Relocated to a church in Findlay, OH (St. Andrew's Methodist??) in 1925 by Lima Pipe Organ Co. Then relocated again c. 1983 through OCH to Trinity Episcopal Church in Iowa City, Iowa. -Database Manager

2009-09-21 - Updated through on-line information from T. Andrew Hicks. -- I am the organist of Trinity Episcopal Church, Iowa City, to which this instrument was relocated and now resides. I have updated some information in this database entry, based on a photograph found in our archives of the instrument in its location in the church at Findley, OH, 1982 or 1983, shortly before the dismantling of the instrument and its move to Iowa City. The pedalboard is obscured, but placement in the room can be noted, and it can be seen that the console layout was the same as it is now, after the Bozeman rebuild. Interior details of the instrument cannot be determined from the photo, nor can the identity of the church, which had been converted to a second-hand store, as can be seen in the photo. Facade pipes painted white, with mouths painted gold. Facade casework appears to be oak. -Database Manager

2017-01-07 - Updated by Dwane Grace, naming this as the source of information: Lima, Ohio newspaper articles. <br> <br>This church was also known as Bethany Lutheran and First Lutheran. -Database Manager
