Notes
The organ was likely originally free-standing and encased with an
attached, projecting keydesk.
The facade was likely 3-sectional and contained 23 pipes arranged: 5 -
13 - 5. This would have included
the first 10 pipes of the Great 8' Open Diapason.
The exact nomenclature of stops and controls is not able to be
verified. The organ has since been electrified and rebuilt.
Names given are based on writing on the extant chests and pipework and
on other extant and documented
examples of the builders' work from this period.
The organ was electrified and reinstalled in St. Anthony's R.C. Church
in nearby Tigard, OR. by Portland organ technician and Casavant Rep.
Clele d'Autremont, and a "new" console was provided. It was
originally installed in a rear gallery chamber,
but was later moved to a chamber in the right wall of the church close
to the front.
