Jeff Scofield on November 6th, 2021:

From the February 1970 issue of THE DIAPASON: The R. L. Bittner Company has been awarded the contract for a new three-manual instrument for the First Presbyterian Church of Ashtabula, Ohio. Some pipes of the present organ will be used in the new design. The Great and Pedal will be unenclosed. The new organ will be placed behind the present facade and will replace the 1900 Steere which has served the church well. The new design was worked out in co·operation with the organist, Mavis Jones Bires. Voicing will be done by Mr. Bittner and Arnold Klann of the Painesville· based firm. Installation is schedule for late Summer of 1970.
