DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
Updated through online information from J.A. Hefner: Organ building appears [long] gone as of 2019, and was located at the Smith farm at 4940 Mahar Road.
J. A. Hefner on January 29th, 2024:
https://pipeorgandatabase.org/instruments/63746 was the original location, and it was moved in 1965 when the church closed [per 13 October 1969 article]. The organ was installed in a specially-built structure on the Smith farm, reusing the doors, roof, and floor of the old church.
The original farmhouse is abandoned, decayed, and overgrown. Aerial photos don't help too much, as it isn't clear which is the organ building, but nothing resembling the building in ca. 1969 photos seems to still exist. The land has been parceled out to other family members, with a few new houses built where the organ house may have stood.
