Built by: F.A. Bartholomay & Sons (1930) - opus 149


The firm of Bartholomay & Sons built a new organ for Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Richmond, Virginia in 1930. It was placed in an organ room near the chancel, without a visible front in the church. A number of registers were constructed as units. In 1982 a new organ was installed in the gallery opposite the pulpit by Taylor & Boody. The old organ remains. A recording was made by Earl Miller in 1982 at Raven Records. It is not known whether the organ is still present or whether it has been demolished.
