Have a look at Jeux organ soundfont, which is the best one I've ever heard.
I'ts made by someone who seems to be well versed in organ history and
tradition:

http://members.aol.com/realmac/jeux1.htm

Its creator says:

"The JEUX soundfont is a collection of sounds designed for use with Creative
Labs' AWE32 and similar sound cards that support the SoundFont 2 file
structure. I have tried to duplicate the characteristic sounds of real pipe
organ stops (including individual ranks, mixtures, choruses, and effects),
with a particular goal of assembling a collection of stops suitable for MIDI
realizations of organ music written before 1750. Through careful selection
of stops, I have found it is possible to realize music of later composers as
well, for the palette of tone colors I have included is very broad."


The files are compressed using WinRar.  I'm assuming there's some utility
for Mac that can decompress them (I think you can download a shareware
version of Winrar for Mac).
