Risking turning this into a reed list, try this definition.

Vox Clarabella - sounds like the jeep on "Roy Rogers"

Hie thee to a book purveyor and get a copy of Horton (not Elvis )Presley's
"Restoring and Collecting Antique Reed Organs" (Vestal)

Some insight into stop designations as well as sample/typical setups for
various size instruments.

Other books also out there...

Bonne chance!
