Database Manager on June 8th, 2005:
Identified through online information from Paul Grimwood. -- This instrument was built in 1908 after the original church and organ were destroyed by fire in 1906. It was the second completely new Casavant in Hamilton. An echo division was installed in the rear gallery in 1918, and inaugurated by Joseph Bonnet. A new Casavant console was installed in 1950. In 1982 the organ was tonally revised and overhauled by Alan T. Jackson for Casavant Freres. Plans exist for converting the console to solid state by 2007. Specifications on the church website.
