This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified from the Fostoria Area Historical Society website: "The contract for the new church was awarded to F.P. Lindsey at $3,572. Work was started Sept. 29, 1900, and it was ready for use and dedication Jan. 20, 1901."
"The next few years saw other improvements and additions to the new church and the name was changed to the First Reformed Church in 1901. In January 1908, permission was given to the young people’s Christian Endeavor to raise funds for a new organ. they succeeded with the help of Andrew Carnegie who donated one half of the cost of $1,400. Installation and other changes to accommodate the organ raised the cost to $2,000."
