According to an online history on the parish website, "At the same time, the sanctuary also was renovated, with new pews and a new organ. The addition was dedicated Jan. 21. 1917. The organ was presented to the Church by Mrs. Joseph Rawlins Voris and her children, Elizabeth and Archibald, in memory of her husband and their father, who died Jan. 17, 1917."
A new organ was built in 1968-69 which incorporated some ranks from the Pilcher.
