R. Wilson Ross

This would have been a stock model Hook & Hastings, which was electrified and tonally altered at an as yet unknown date, apparently by Wilson Ross, (Elmira?) a local service technician early to mid-century. A typical H&H specification for an organ of this model size, was Gr 8.8.8.4.2; Sw. 8.8.8.8.4.8 and Ped. 16, unison couplers.

Updated through online information from David Jackson. -- The facade looks like a standard Moller facade of the early 1900's so maybe Moller may have detached the console?

Identified from company publications as edited and expanded in The Hook Opus List 1829-1935, ed. William T. Van Pelt (Organ Historical Society, 1991).
