- De First Presbyterian Church in Newport, Kentucky stond op de hoek van Overton Street en East 5th Street. Het kerkgebouw werd in 1893 in gebruik genomen. De firma Koehnken & Grimm leverden een tweeklaviers orgel voor de kerk.
- Het kerkgebouw is rond 1990 gesloten. Daarna werd het gebruikt als opslagruimte, waarbij het orgel in bespeelbare staat in een deel van het gebouw bleef staan. De kerk is uiteindelijk rond 2016/2017 afgebroken. Op de plaats is een loods gebouwd. Het is niet bekend wat er met het orgel is gebeurd.
