DETAILS
This instrument is: ExtantandPlayable in this location
"Another Kilgen is located in St. Patrick's RC Church Maysville. It is almost identical to the one in Kirksville, Ky (Organ ID 4659) except that the orginal stenciling remains on the display pipes."
(from earlier posted empty stoplist)
The organ contains wood from shipping crates that shows St. Patrick's Church name and address; another supprt board for the Pedal Bourdon shows also a boxed "K" logo with the hand written text: "Organ #23, West Detroit". This may identify where the c. 1900 Kilgen organ came from.
