- Moeller organs: I am researching the history of our old 10-rank that was purchased used and installed prior to the 1930s. I want to trace its history back further. Is this possible? Delphine

A good place to start is the Organ Historical Society data base at:

Yes, I have consulted with OHS staff. What I am hoping to find are others who have or had used a small 10-rank Moeller at some time in the past. I remember having what I believe were small Artistes to practice on at Concordia Teachers College, River Forest (now Concordia University Chicago) in the 1950s. I've read Orpha Ochse's volume. I am wondering if there might ever have been a "paper trail."

Delphine,
I've sent you an email - so as not to publish a private email address - address of someone you might try.
His name is George Nelson

Where should I look? The console was replaced back in the 70s. Then, we updated the console to solid state with a Peterson system.

I have found from parish archives that the Moeller was installed as a used instrument prior to 1927 by after 1895. I do not know how to determine the opus number. If anyone of you can help, I would greatly appreciate it.
