This book will introduce you to a man almost unknown to most people. But he was famous for being one of New England's first American-born organ makers and a well-respected citizen of Newburyport, Massachusetts. A few of the early organ makers during the time of Joseph Alley became well-known and written about, but not Joseph Alley. History books abandoned him. When I set out to write this biography, I was surprised at the limited information available regarding Joseph Alley. I could find no complete books or writings; everything was fragmented into church articles, newspaper articles, and brief references. The purpose of this book is to correct that injustice. I will discuss the Alley family history from early England and write about some of Joseph Alley's famous forbears. I will discuss what little we know of Joseph Alley's life and his talent for building the most unique organ of all, the Euharmonic (Enharmonic) Organ, for which he received a patent. His peers respected him for his work on the intricate mechanisms of his organs. I will show you some early American newspaper articles published about Joseph Alley. Hopefully, this patchwork of writing will help us to gain a better understanding of who Joseph Alley was and where his roots lay. Sit back and enjoy this brief history of Joseph Alley, Organ maker..
