Information from dedication program, September 22, 1992 and site visit by DT May 20, 1993

Organ originally in First Baptist Church, Monument Avenue and the Boulevard.  The fourth manual was probably the Echo Division and was retained as the Antiphonal keyboard in the A-S rebuild.  The A-S Antiphonal was destroyed by fire c. 1965 and replaced by Casavant.  It was retained at the church as part of the new Casavant installed in 1971.
