NOTES
The original Austin was 54 ranks and retained 6 ranks from the previous
Hook & Hastings instrument in the Antiphonal and Pedal divisions. The
organ was enlarged bit-by-bit over the years, each time with various
control systems. In 2004, Lewis & Hitchcock converted the console and all
relays to Peterson solid state including MIDI compatibility and a
sequencer. In 2008, a memorial gift allowed the console to be made movable.
Stoplist and statistics above are based upon information and photos on the
church's web page.
