Updated through online information from Doug Cassell.


Database Manager on January 21st, 2009:

Identified through information in Bedient publications: "... the 70-rank, 1969 Swain & kates organ received a complete overhaul. In fact, with the exception of limited pipework, all major components: casework, windchests, bellows, are brand new. The organ layout was also reconfigured, which included moving the 16' redwood subbass pipes, dating from a 1912 version of the organ, from choir loft stairwells to the main organ chamber."
