DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
This organ is known from the William King work list compiled by King researcher Dr. Donald R.M. Patterson, and published in The Tracker XVI:4:1971.
A reconstruction of an 1876 organ. Rebuilt and electrified with a new facade and horseshoe console in 1926 for the high cost of $6,000; parted out in 1971 when the church bought an electronic imitation and sold to an organ enthusiast in upstate New York for use in an amateur home installation.
