  • Saint Paul's Episcopal Church in Chester, Pennsylvania was built in the years 1702-1703. After a renovation and expansion of the church in 1873, it was decided to purchase a pipe organ. It was built in 1884 as opus 1223 by the firm of Hook & Hastings. A new church building was erected in 1899-1900, which was dedicated on April 15, 1900, Easter Sunday. The organ has been transferred to the new church. Charles S. Haskell modified the organ and installed a new facade.
  • In 1956 the organ was demolished and replaced by a new organ from Aeolian-Skinner. Only the front of the old organ, installed by Haskell, has been preserved.
