2020-04-09 - The organ was destroyed in a fire in 1876. Might the organ have been Stevens & Jewett? -Database Manager
2020-09-08 - It is a traditon at Fort Street that some pipes from the Stevens are in the present organ. If one looks at the photo of the burned church and consider that the organ was right behind the large pointed-arch window in the center of the facade, one comes to the conclusion that nothing survived from the Stevens organ. -William M. Worden

Geo. Stevens (& Co.) (1855) Fort Street Presbyterian Church Detroit, MI This stoplist is taken from the Detroit “Free Press” of November 4, 1855. In transcribing, stops have been arranged in the assumed pitch order. It is likely that there are errors in the newspaper listing; it seems certain that the Great would have had a two-foot and one wonders if the Fifteenth listed for the Choir is, in fact, a Great stop.
