Database Manager on January 22nd, 2008:

Updated through on-line information from woody crouch. -- Tubular pneumatic action, original chests and console replaced with e/p pilcher components from 1924 Pilcher organ in the First Presbyterian church, Richmond, Kentucky, which was replaced in 1967 by a Casavant tracker organ of 2 manuals and approximately 29 ranks. I was given this organ in 1969 to make way for the new Steiner organ. The pipes are presently on the Pilcher [EP] chests from the 1st Presbyterian Church and are in my late parents' home in Springfield, Kentucky, still playing after a fashion. I got the organ playing just before I left home for college in 1968 and have lived in Richmond, Kentucky most of the time since, playing the organ on occasions I returned home.


Database Manager on April 7th, 2005:

Identified through information in Volume V p. 43 of the Pilcher factory ledger and the list of Pilcher organs typed by William E. Pilcher of Louisville. For more information see the document referenced below.
