This is a rebuild of an existing organ. Identified by Ian Mason, using information from this web site: http://www.dodington.com/rebuilds.html#Chatham.

John George Vogt, a hotel-keeper in Elmira, Ontario, also built organs such as the one for St. James Lutheran Church in the village. (Source: http://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/vogt_augustus_stephen_15E.html )
