If you could find any info about Mr Warner, I would appreciate it. This is what I know so far:
Born 9 May 1832- son of Andrew and Phoebe Warner
Died 13 Oct 1923
Married Catherine Doherty (b. 1 Nov 1834, d. 20 May 1913)
Lost both arms in the Civil War and dedicated the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial at East Rock Park in New Haven, CT. He was 90 Years old when he did this so the family says.
Age 30 enlisted at Derby, CT into the 20th Connecticut Volunteers, Company B, commanded by Captain Samuel Chaffee. The regiment was in command of Colonel Samuel Ross.
Can you tell me if this is correct information and any other battles he was in? Can you tell me where he is buried and if there is any relation to the Hartley, Hendricks, Williams, Granger, etc. families in New Haven, CT?
I hope I am not asking too much. I have never written to the DAR before and don't quite know what to ask or what to provide for information.
Thank you very much - Linda In NC -
