This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified through online information from Nathan Bienz [October 10, 2025]: Martini Lutheran Church was organized in 1853, but the first record of an organ dates to 1881. At a meeting in August of that year, the voters decided to sell the melodeon which had proven too weak to accompany congregational singing and to purchase a new pipe organ in its place. On November 6, 1881, the congregation decided to purchase a $700 instrument, which it seems was installed sometime in 1882. Unfortunately, no further information on that instrument could be found.

The 1882 organ served Martini for the next 43 years, though a new organ fund was already established sometime before 1921. The organ committee, appointed in 1923, determined to purchase a tracker action organ. On February 8, 1925, the voters approved the purchase of a $2,787 instrument from the Treu Organ Co. of St. Louis, MO. This was a two-manual instrument with 12 speaking stops, four couplers, and two combinations. A special dedicatory service was held on Sunday, July 5, 1925.

Because the area around the church was heavily industrializing, Martini voted in 1966 to sell its 1870 church building and construct a new structure in the suburbs. The Men's Club paid Lima Pipe Organ Co. to move, rebuild, and electrify the 1925 organ at a cost of $10,850. During that process, several ranks of pipes were replaced, and a new two-manual console was added.
