NOTES
There was originally an 8' Oboe and an 8' Stopped Diapason
on the Swell.  Both ranks were in very poor condition and
were replaced by Michael Quimby with an 8' Trumpet and an
8' Rohr Flute when the organ was rebuilt in 1970.

The pedal specifications previously listed on OHS are in-
correct. The pedalboard is flat and parallel, NOT concave
and radiating. [Ed. - Corrected]. Also, the composition
foot trundles were not in working condition and were removed -
likely by Treu when the organ was installed in 1926. [Ed.
- There never was a Crescendo Pedal. Reference was to the
removed foot trundles for Piano & Forte]

The organ is as least 130 years old and was built sometime
during the 1880's. OHS has the date of construction listed
as 1895, but this is the date when it was rebuilt by the 
A. B. Felgemaker Company. [Ed. - Corrected]

There's a possibility that it was originally a four manual
instrument, but was later reduced in size because of the
lack of space at one of it's previous locations.

The organ is currently being tuned and maintained by the
Quimby Pipe Organ Company of Warrensburg, Missouri. The
instrument is in excellent condition, and has been in
continuous use since it's installation at Zion Lutheran
Church in 1926.

Rick D. Harms, former organist at Zion Lutheran Church from 1978 to 1996.
