Database Manager on June 15th, 2013:
Updated through online information from David Poile. -- There seems to be an error with this entry. There is no Knowersville, New York, but there is a Knowlesville. (Ed. Note: The name of the town was changed from Knowersville to Altamont in the 19th century, and the original publication in 1895 of the Hook & Hastings Opus List uses the name Knowersville. We now list both the former and the current name of the town to allow searches under either name.)
Database Manager on March 1st, 2005:
Identified from company publications as edited and expanded in The Hook Opus List 1829-1935, ed. William T. Van Pelt (Organ Historical Society, 1991).
