2004-10-30 - Rebuilt by Hutchings in 1895. -Database Manager

2007-06-04 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- Three-sectional facade with 14 pipes arranged: 4-6-4. Organ rebuilt by Hutchings in 1895 as his opus 360. Later work by Woodberry (1905). New console by W. W. Laws in 1951. Re-trackerized, rebuilt, enlarged 1988 by Andover Organ Co. -Database Manager

2016-03-16 - Updated through online information from Scot Huntington. <br>This organ replaced E. & G.G. Hook No. 14, a 2-manual instrument built in 1834 and moved to Christ Church, Springfield, Massachusetts in 1851. It is very likely Hook took the 1834 organ in trade, making a trade-in allowance on it against the purchase price of No. 123. -Database Manager
