- Around 1885 (or in 1896?) James (Peter?) Conacher built an organ for the Roman Catholic Church of the Incarnation in Tombae, Morayshire in Scotland. This church was built in 1829. In 2011, the organ received an award as a classified monument. But the church closed its doors at the end of 2011, after which the building was taken out of use. The organ was sold a few years later.
- Gerhard Walcker-Mayer transferred it in 2017 to the Sankt Michaelkirche, belonging to the Johann-Ludwig-Schneller-Schule in Khirbet-Qanafâr in Lebanon. The organ was dedicated on December 3, 2017. It was played by Klaus Schulten.
