The first organ in the Alfred Congregational Church was built in 1805 by William Gray, New Road, Fitzroy Square, London. A small one-manual instrument, It was obtained in 1859 from Harvard College, Cambridge, Massachusetts, and served until 1907. For a complete history of the travels of the Gray organ, still extant and located at Christ Church, Cambridge, Mass., see Barbara Owen's article "Tracing An English Chamber Organ", *The Tracker*, Vol. 22, No. 2, Winter 1978, p.1. -- *1992 OHS Handbook*
