Gebaut von: John Brombaugh & Co. (1990) - Opus 32
Die Orgel enthält älteren Material: Pipes aus von M.P. Möller Company


  • On Advent Sunday, December 2, 1990, a new organ was inaugurated at Christ Church, Christiana in Greenville, Wilmington, Delaware. The instrument is dedicated to the memory of E.I. duPont de Nemours and his three daughters, founder of the church in 1848. The organ case was designed after the example of Father Smith's 1685 case in Christ Church Cathedral in Oxford, UK. Three stops on the Choir were taken from the previous organ of the church, built by the firm Möller.
  • Six stops have been made after examples of original pipework by Father Henry Willis from 1871. These are the Willis Cornet 3 ranks, the reeds of Swell and the Clarinet of Choir. As an example, the organ of Saint Joseph's Roman Catholic Church in Seattle has been used, an organ by Willis originally built for Christ Church, Westgreen on Waldeck Road, London.
