Database Manager on August 26, 2013:

Updated through online information from Robert Chapman. -- I'm a native of Newburgh, NY and played a 2/7 Austin at Moulton Memorial Baptist Church on William Street. I don't think there is a Mountain Memorial Baptist. The original Austin console was replaced by a new 2manual Klann console about 1956.
