- A fire destroyed the previous organ of Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in Gainesville. After the restoration of the building, the Visser-Rowland-Association delivered a new three-manual organ in 1994/1995. It is built like a classic Dutch organ with a completely Dutch-language disposition. The organ was set up in two organ cases, left and right of the liturgical center.
- In May 2009 the organ was overhauled by Robert Coulter and John Pritchard. In particular, they have completely revised the intonation to give the organ a more English sound. Furthermore, the Octave 2' of Swell and the Woudfluit 2' of the Great were exchanged, the Sharp of Swell was modified and the Kromhoorn of Choir was made a lot milder in sound.
