Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ was originally built for the Smith Co. Mortuary on Riverside Drive, and was removed and relocated to St. Stephen's by Harold Curryer when the mortuary was razed. Several original ranks/stops were altered or eliminated, including the harp. Mr. Curryer added an exposed 8', 4', 2-2/3', 2' unit Spitz Principal to the Great, and an 8'/4' Trumpet to the Swell. Other damaged pipework was never repaired. The console has only a 2" diameter windline feeding it, so the combination action is very slow to respond. The blend between new and original Kimball pipework is poor. There are no independent Pedal registers, just extensions and borrows.
