- In 1901 Theodore Bates built an organ for the Somerset Street Methodist Church in Abertillery, Wales. He used a lot of pipework and a windchest from a former residence pipe organ from around 1860. He made the new windchests for Swell and Pedal with pneumatic action.
- In 1993, Roy Redman restored the organ and relocated it to in Saint Mary's Episcopal Church in Cypress, Texs. He made a new mechanical windchest for the pedal and added a Principal 4' and Bassoon 16'. Swell also got a mechanical windchest. At Great, Redman replaced the Dulciana 8' with a Mixture.
