RICHMOND RANDOLPH NO.19 LODGE HISTORY Chartered on October 29, 1787 by the Grand Lodge of Virginia. The brethren of Richmond Randolph No.19 has been meeting in our home Masons' Hall, the oldest masonic lodge building in America, for almost two and a half centuries.  Richmond Randolph No.19 (RR19) was  chartered on October 29, 1787 at the annual meeting of Grand Lodge of Virginia being held at the newly completed Mason's Hall. Our lodge and its members are intertwined with early history of Virginia freemasonry, of the United States and of the City of Richmond. Almost two and a half centuries later, we are still meeting in the same place where we began in the oldest continuously occupied masonic lodge building in America!  ​ The three men primarily responsible for our charter were William Waddill, John Dixon Sr. and Col. David Lambert who became our first lodge Master, Senior and Junior Wardens respectively. Waddill, an accomplished silversmith, was a Past Master of the Williamsburg Lodge No.6 and helped organize the Grand Lodge of Virginia in 1777. It was Waddill who summoned the other Virginia lodges to convene in Williamsburg and it was Waddill who would nominate the first Grand Master of Virginia Masons. He would be No.19's first

Our focus continues to be on our lodge's core pillars of Masonic education, fellowship, stewarding Masons' Hall on behalf of the broader Masonic community, and ritual excellence.  The theme for the year is "Arete" (ah-reh-tay), the ancient Greek word for virtue - striving for excellence in all that we do - a continual pursuit of Free and Accepted Masons.  We will work on this together with enlightening and interesting programs and speakers delving deeper into the symbolism and philosophy that underpins our Masonic philosophy - as well as some lighter presentations on Masonic History and Masons' Hall.  Check out our "Calendar/Trestle Board" tab for a full listing of events.   Are you a non-Mason curious about Freemasonry?
