Organ ID: 72755
Assembled by an unknown builder from parts of various organs. Organ cleaned after a minor fire in 2002. Solid state relay system had previously been installed. Chests of much older, unidentified origin. One complete rank of pipes was installed on the chest but had no stop controls driving it. From an evaluation of the organ at that time by Paul Marchesano: "a solid state switching and coupling relay which controls a unified low voltage DC electro-mechanical action. Some pipework is marked “Wicks Opus 6137” which originally was installed in the 1980s in People’s United Church of Christ in Dover, Delaware. Additional older pipework appears to come from two unknown organs, both probably built in the period 1890-1920. The String ranks are marked with “Opus 301” which does not provide enough information to determine the original builder."
