Jim Stettner on January 17th, 2026:

Updated through online information from Andrew Henderson [January 16, 2026]: According to the Elmira Daily Advertiser, January 26, 1869, the Grace Chapel (mission chapel of Trinity Church) was dedicated that month, and was "supplied with the organ formerly in Trinity Church, which has been thoroughly repaired and put in good condition." It's likely that King rebuilt the ca. 1836 from Elmira's Trinity Church.

Scot Huntington on April 12th, 2022:

This organ is known from the annotated William King work list compiled by King researcher Dr. Donald R.M. Patterson and published in The Tracker XVI:4:1972.

Moved to Emmanuel Church in 1906. Existed in 1923.
