Notes

Database Manager on May 05, 2017:

Updated by Jim Lewis, who has heard or played the organ.

I played this organ for about 1 1/2 years from 1964-1966. The Choir had been rebuilt on direct-electric action, but the rest of the organ was original. The church was built in the late 1920s, so I would guess the organ was installed sometime between c.1927 and 1937.
