I erred some about Michael House.

In the Vestry minutes for "Hebron" for 1813 (there are very few of these
minutes), it was decided that Michael House would be the organist for the
year.

Friedrich Schad was the organist from 1804 to 1806 (the evidence is that he
was in the communion lists over these years with a wife and two children).

Probably Michael House learned to play the Tannenberg organ at Hebron from
Schad. Therefore, there is no evidence, so far, that he went to Lititz to
pick up the organ.
