Andrew Henderson on January 7th, 2024:

Opening of the instrument reported in the Buffalo Courier Express, September 28, 1902. Upon the instrument's relocation and later rebuilding by Schlicker, reporting mentioned the congregation's purchase of an organ from a Jewish Synagogue that had originally been featured in the Buffalo Pan American Exposition.


Database Manager on May 16th, 2016:

This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by William Dunklin, using information found in a vintage postcard.

Church building dedicated in 1869. Postcard from ca 1908 shows a free standing organ with a polychromed pipe fence facade, front and center. The congregation moved to a new location in 1961 and is now known as St. Matthew's United Church of Christ, Hamburg NY.
