Early life
Warner was born in New Haven, Connecticut on March 17, 1833, a son of Amos Warner Jr. and Adah (née Austin) Warner.[1] His paternal grandfather was Amos Warner, who fought in the American Revolutionary War.[1] He was educated at Guilford Academy in Guilford, Connecticut.[2]
Career
In 1847, he came to Rochester as an apprentice to one of his uncles, Merwin Austin, for whom he worked as a draftsman.[3] He was soon made a partner in his uncle's business, which as Austin & Warner existed from about 1855 to 1858.[4] Warner then established an independent practice until 1867 when he partnered with Charles Coots under the firm name of Andrew J. Warner & Co.[5] After this he had an independent practice, then from 1875 to 1877 partnered with James Goold Cutler (1848-1927) in a firm known as Warner & Cutler.[6][7]
Personal life
Warner was married to Catherine Pardee Foster (1834–1921), the daughter of Jonathan Foster and Hulda (née Griffin) Foster, on March 22, 1955. Together, they were the parents of two sons:[8]
- William Amos Warner (1855–1917)[8]
- John Foster Warner (1859–1937), who was also an architect who married Mary Adams (1859–1943).[9][10]
Warner died in Rochester on September 4, 1910, and is buried in Mount Hope Cemetery.[11]
