Thompkin Metropolitan AME Zion Church

The organ was originally installed around 1871 at Temple B’Nai Israel,
Galveston TX. It was replaced there by Pilcher Op. 1051 and moved to
Chattanooga by Pilcher at a cost of $3000. The organ is barely playable at
this time and the church has very little interest in the organ.
