Database Manager on February 26th, 2015:
Updated through online information from Terry Jensen. -- This organ was not relocated to a new church building; the church building was moved (physically) to a new location on West Spain Street. The organ was removed from the building, and then the second floor of the building was moved across town to West Spain Street. The organ was then placed back in the church.

Database Manager on July 5th, 2007:
