Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner.
Database Manager on December 3rd, 2008:
Updated through on-line information from John Panning. -- This organ has been rebuilt several times. Austin provided a new console in 1955. Kapler-Walton of Olathe, Kansas, significantly rebuilt the organ in the 1960s (new Great division, tonal changes to the other divisions). Dobson added a solo trumpet in 1988. Subsequent to my knowledge of the organ, it has been rebuilt by Rodgers.
