From the church website: Op. 1330 was installed in 1958 as a rebuild of 1924 2/11 Pilcher Op. 1234 and adding six ranks with preparations for an additional 27 ranks; Walters Organ Co. added a 4-rank Mixture and a Zimbelstern in 1974; three reeds and the prepared-for Choir division were added in 1976; the organ was moved in 1985 by Klug & Schumacher to the new sanctuary with the addition of a further 13 ranks and a new Zimbelstern; a Trompette-en-Chamade was also added that year; a 3-rank Antiphonal was added in 1989; the console was updated in 1999 and 15 equivalent-rank Walker stops were added in 2010, along with a pipe facade in the balcony.
The word 'Memorial' was dropped from church's name in 1968 upon the merger of the EUB and Methodist denominations.
Updated through information adapted from E. M. Skinner/Aeolian-Skinner Opus List, by Sand Lawn and Allen Kinzey (Organ Historical Society, 1997), and included here through the kind permission of Sand Lawn:
Rebuild of 1924 2/11 Pilcher, #1234; moved to new building and rebuilt by Klug & Schumacher in 1985; now 3/45.
Identified through online information from Stephen Hall. -- New organ but used some pipe work from previous Pilcher. Relocated to new sanctuary in 1986 by Klug and Schumaker who also added many of the prepared for stops. Still contains all the AS pipe work and console. Most of the prepared for stops were added when the organ was relocated to the new sanctuary in 1987. Additional ranks added since that time including some not in original specification.
