Notes

Database Manager on December 31, 2006:

Updated through on-line information from Gary Black - Bradford, Il.  -- I am the organist at Leet Memorial United Methodist Church in Bradford, Il. The Hook and Hastings organ is no longer extant. A fire in January of 1935 destroyed the church and the organ. The new building was built in 1936 and is still in use today. We now have a five-rank Wicks that was installed in 1946.
