Updated through online information from Andrew Henderson (December 29, 2024): Instrument installed by Stuart Kennedy in May 1964. Original builder was Charles F. Chadwick, circa 1904, for an unknown church in Hanover, Massachusetts.

[Editor: Newspaper article attributes installation to parishioners with Stuart Kennedy as Consultant].


Andrew Henderson on December 29th, 2024:

From the Edmonton Journal (May 30, 1964): "Bethlehem Lutheran Church, 117th Avenue and 48th St., will dedicate its pipe organ, Sunday at 3 pm. This is the tenth 'tracker' organ to be installed in Alberta. A Chadwick, it was brought in March in dismantled form, from Hanover, Mass. It is probably 60 years old. The organ has 659 pipes, which are controlled by 12 stops and 2 manuals. It was installed by congregation members. Stuart Kennedy, organ consultant, of Calgary, will be guest organist for the service."
