Henry Crabb
1852ca.

Updated through online information from T. Daniel Hancock. -- The "American Musical Directory," published by Thomas Hutchinson, New York, 1861, reports "Size of organ--3 banks keys, 32 stops, 1-1/2 octaves pedals. Built by Henry Crabb, sen., in 1852."

A new organ, built by Mr. Crabb, of Flatbush, has also been placed in the Church, within eighteen months. [Pinel notes this was a rebuild of an 1813 John Lowe for St. John's Chapel in NYC. Is this the large organ donated to St. Clement's by Trinity Corporation in 1844?]
