Description	:	Julia Bornhop Ruebling played the organ for Immanuel Lutheran Church for 60 years. In addition to church services, she played weddings, funerals, and special occasions. When she first started the sermons were in German and could last 2 hours or longer. Most of us who even remember Julia knew her as an "old lady" who played the songs a little to slow, but that probably wasn't always the case. Julia began playing music for the church in January 1910. She was 18, and largely self taught. When she started playing she only had 19 lessons. She was taught by a dressmaker,... Read More	Julia Bornhop Ruebling played the organ for Immanuel Lutheran Church for 60 years. In addition to church services, she played weddings, funerals, and special occasions. When she first started the sermons were in German and could last 2 hours or longer. Most of us who even remember Julia knew her as an "old lady" who played the songs a little to slow, but that probably wasn't always the case. Julia began playing music for the church in January 1910. She was 18, and largely self taught. When she started playing she only had 19 lessons. She was taught by a dressmaker, who gave her 1 hour of lesson for every 4 hours that Julia sewed. In 1919 the Lutheran church purchased a new pipe organ. This organ was massive - I wish I had a picture - with big pipes, foot pedals and all kinds of buttons to pull and two rows of keys. Julia decided she needed more lessons, so she hired a teacher from St. Charles and paid him $1 a lesson plus half his fare to come to Wentzville. She took 11 more lessons. The first picture is Julia as a young girl sitting on the fence on her fathers farm. The second picture is Julia, her husband Al, and her niece Gwen Schuchmann Berg taken on the Lutheran Church grounds, the building in the background is the church hall. The last picture is the Julia most of us alive today remember. Julia and her husband Al are buried in South Linn Cemetery. Source Wentzville Union 1990. (per Wentzville Historical Society) The Daughter of Henry Claus Bornhop and Anna Katherine (Peters) Bornhop. Married to Alfred Ruebling.
