Old photo of Trinity Methodist sanctuary

An organ by Pilcher of Chicago was installed in 1867.  The first organist on record at Trinity was Professor Mathias.

An organ installed in 1910 was operated by a large hand pump in a small room just back of the organ until 1919 when electric power was substituted. 

In 1961 a Wicks Organ of 42 Ranks was installed, along with most of present organ case.

In 1992 renovations and 16 additional ranks were installed by by John Wolford and Michael Woods, assisted by John Medcraft, Mike Suter and Dorothy Wolford.  Tonal finishing by William Bust, Ronald Yeater, Michael Woods and Mark Hatfield.
