- George Jardine built his opus 1123 in 1893 for the Russel Sage Memorial Presbyterian Church in Far Rockaway, State of New York. It was bought by the Arverne Church of God after closing of this church, but was never installed here. It became the property of the Sacred Heart Church in Yarmouth, Maine in 1985 through the Organ Clearing House. The organ was restored in 1986 by David E. Wallace. Nothing has been modified in the organ, except for the size of the pedal keyboard, which Wallace has enlarged from C-d' (27 keys) to C-g' (32 keys).
- In 2019-2020 the pedal will be expanded with three new stops, and the original Bourdon 16' will be removed. The work will be done by David E. Wallace.
