Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ was originally in the First Baptist Church. It was used from 1912 until 1956 when the church moved into a new building and the organ stayed in the old edifice. The organ was moved to the Terrell Heritage Museum in the 1980s when the old church building was demolished.
Database Manager on September 4th, 2007:
Identified by James R. Stettner through information from the Estey Opus List, published in The Boston Organ Club newsletter, 1973-1979.
