From Organ Database Builders editor Charles Eberline, April 1, 2018. -

This may be a misspelling for Cadwaller. Boston city directories for the years between 1865 and 1889 (with some gaps) list a Thomas (or Thos.) Cadwallader (or Cadwalader) who was an organ tuner (1874 is one of the gap years); in the directories for 1878 through 1886 his work address is the business address of Hook & Hastings.
