- The Wicks Organ Company built an organ for Saint Rose of Lima Catholic Church in Quincy in 1912 as opus 56. It was built with pneumatic action and cone chests. The church was closed in 2005, but re-opened in 2008 after a renovation and is the only catholic church in the surrounding area that provides only Latin Mass. The organ was playable, but in urgent need for a restoration.
- Phillip Hoenig undertook an overhaul in 2009-2010. They could not solve all the problems, because the pneumatic action was worn out and a larger restoration was needed.
- Buzzard Pipe Organ Builders technically constructed a new organ in 2022, using all the Wicks material. The stop list was extended with a Fifteenth on Great and a Cornopean on Swell. The action is electric since with new slider chests.
