- Around 1750 Teschemacher built a cabinet organ for a Mennonite minister in Amsterdam. When his descendants emigrated to Cleveland in the United States in 1868, they took the organ with them. It eventually ended up in the Baptist Church of North Newton, Kansas in 1910, donated by Wilhelmina van der Smissen Schwake.
- In 1969 Flentrop restored the pipework. The Fleut Traverso was renewed, as well as part of the prospect pipes. The Fleut Traverso is equipped with a special drawer. By opening the register halfway, only the bass speaks. The organ originally also had a Cimbelster, but this stop has disappeared completely.
- In 2007 the organ was restored by the Noack Organ Company. In addition, the Quinte 1 1/3' has been reworked to a Flageolette 2'.
