DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
This organ was purchased for use by Newark First United Methodist Church of Newark, NY in combination with their existing Moller organ of 1920s vintage. This was to be a large and ambitious project. The work needed was never done, and the parts languished in storage for many years. The blower from the Elmira organ was used for the older Moller organ. NFUMC decided have their existing 1920s organ rebuilt and restored, this was done by Parsons Organ Co. in 2024. With no use for the Centenary organ, all of the associated pipework, parts and console were turned over to Parsons in 2025.
