DETAILS
This instrument is: Not ExtantandNot Playable in this location
This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ was installed with a minimalist stoplist, and many prepared-for registers. These were added over the years. Most of the stoptabs for speaking stops were white. Reed voices were red. And couplers were black. Installed in a single chamber on the right wall of the chancel behind a pipe case/grille. Console directly beneath. When the organ was replaced in 1983 with a new Casavant, it is reported to have been moved to a church in Texas.
Verified with the Kilgen opus list.
