DETAILS
This instrument is: Unknown Status and Unknown Playability in this location
Congregation no longer meets in the church building. They worship at Huntington Valley Chapel (on the campus of St. John's Episcopal Church). The Haskell replaced an earlier organ: "The new organ stands in the same position as the old one." -- The Times (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) 23 July 1897
This organ was listed on a list published by the firm in 1910, probably indicating additional work or pipework additions. The church also bought a 1 manual Haskell organ for the Sunday School.
The Jenkintown Campus has been sold and is being repurposed. Current status of the organ is unknown.
