After serving in Butler's Rangers in the American Revolution, Warner settled in the vicinity of present-day St. Davids where he became the leader of one of the earliest Methodist congregations in Upper Canada. Services were held in his house until a simple frame church was built on his property in 1801, the first Methodist church west of the Bay of Quinte.
