Built by: David E. Wallace (2003) - opus 35
David E. Wallace built a residence organ for Mary Ann Dodd, who lived in Sherburne, New York, in 2003. The instrument was opus 35 of the company. However, mrs. Dodd died on January 1st, 2007, and the organ was relocated in 2012 to Christ Chapel of the Holy Innocents' Episcopal Church in Atlanta, Georgia, by Edgar Wallace. A reconstruction of the mechanical parts was necesarry to make the organ fit in the new organ chamber in the chapel. The original prospect, a design by James Stillson, could be re-used. In October 2012, the organ was dedicated in Atlanta, with special concerts by the organist of the church David Brensinger. He also acted as consultant during the rebuild.
