  • The roman catholic church of Saint Frances Cabrini in Omaha was dedicated in 1908. The original name was Saint Philomena's Church, the same name as the former cathedral used to have, that stood on West 9th Street from 1868 until 1908, and was finally in function replaced by Saint Cecila's Cathedral, dedicated in 1917. William A. Johnson built a new organ for the old church in 1869, opus 293 of the firm. The organ was in use in the cathedral until the dedication of the new Saint Philomena's Church. It was transfered to this building and installed on the gallery. Because there was not enough room the wooden Double Open Diapason was sawed in two and changed into a Bourdon by making it stopped pipes.
  • In 1928 a restoration was necessary, and the works were carried out by H.T. Depue from Omaha. Het removed the Mixture and the Trumpet from Great, but the rest of the instrument stayed unchanged.
  • The church was re-dedicated on May 23, 1961, to Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini, the first American who was canonized.
