| Year | Builder | Opus | Activity | 1861 | George Stevens & Co. | new organ | 1983 | Dana Hull | restoration |
- In 1861 the firm George Stevens & Co. built an organ for the Congregational Church in Cumberland. It is a two-manual organ with seventeen stops. In the beginning of the twentieth century, the Hautboy was replaced by a Voix Celeste.
- The instrument was restored by Dana Hull in 1983. During this restoration some modifcations were carried out. The Voix Celeste was replaced with a Hautboy, manufactured by George Stevens in 1848. The Viol de Gamba 8' (bass) of Swell was replaced with a Principal 4' (bass), that was taken from an organ in Utica. On Great there was one spare slide. A new Cornet 2-3 ranks was installed here.
