DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
Identified through information received via e-mail from Scot Huntington: " ... identified by OHS Archivist Stephen Pinel as the original organ built for Kingsboro Presbyterian Church, Gloversville, New York. ... The organ was built by Andrews in 1838, and according to later accounts was not completely successful. The organ was "improved" by Beach as his first project as an independent organ builder in 1848 (this was Beach's home church), and taken by him in trade when he installed his first two-manual instrument there in 1857. Heavily altered and rebuilt again by Beach, the organ was installed in St. Mary's Catholic Church in Gloversville at an unknown later date."
