DETAILS

Updated through online information from Jackson Stewart. -- Originally, the organ was located at Georgetown College, Kentucky, where it was used for practicing and performing recitals. The instrument could be moved from the practice room to the recital hall very easily. When the school did not need it anymore, it was moved to the choir room in our church. Before that, however, Jerry Keys refinished the console (from many years of coffee drinking organists) and some of the 8' quintadena pipes that had water damage.
Database Manager on February 3rd, 2015:
Organ relocated without any change.
Identified by Jackson Stewart, based on personal knowledge of the organ.
