Database Manager on February 28th, 2008:
Updated through on-line information from David Hagberg. -- The Hamill from Oakland, Maine listed as "destroyed" is in fact alive and in use at my home in Sterling, Mass. I bought it from Ed Opgenorth of Templeton, MA ca. 1986. The instrument does not have all its original pipework. The pedal was enlarged to 27 notes, using half-length 16' wooden pipes from a Möller theatre organ. The manual oboe is from the dismantled George Reed from Emmanuel Lutheran in Worcester. The dulciana was replaced with a rank of unknown provenance labelled "Spec Gamba."
