This organ is mentioned in a paragraph on the builder,
Joel Kantner, in the article "Early Piano and Organ Manufacturing'
in Reading" in The Music Trade Review, February 7, 1914:
Dr. Kantner's father, Joel Kantner, who died
April 13, 1888, aged sixty-six years, was during
a period of about twenty years a successful builder
of pipe and reed organs and melodians in Penn
Township near Robesonia. The last pipe organ
he built was placed in St. Daniel's Church near
Robesonia.
"Dr. Kantner," Joel Kantner's son, was Franklin J. Kantner,
who built reed organs from 1882 to 1887, after which
he devoted himself to the practice of medicine.
