Paul R. Marchesano on December 22nd, 2024:

Building was entirely destroyed by fire, January 22, 1865. -- information from History of Trinity Church, 1855-1955 by Elizabeth B. Platt. See DOCUMENTS tab for full history.


Database Manager on April 7th, 2005:

Identified through information in the Pilcher factory ledgers and a handwritten list of organs and notes on the firm's history. For more information see the document referenced below.


Database Manager on April 7th, 2005:

The ledger says duplicate of #17 (56n man, 13n ped). The handwritten index says 54n man. The building a 11th & Charles was a temporary location rented from the Cumberland Presbyerians. The organ was probably moved to a 2nd temporary location on Locust between 10th & 11th. The organ was sold to German Lutheran, Belleville, IL as Op. 39 (c. 1859). Pilcher Op. 63 was later built for their new building in 1861.


Database Manager on April 7th, 2005:

In the original numbering, this organ was assigned number 18.
