Warner is a town in Muskogee County, Oklahoma, United States. The population was 1,593 at the 2020 census.

History

The present town of Warner was formed from two communities, Bennett and Hereford, that had existed in the southern part of the Cherokee Nation's Canadian District. Bennett, about southeast of Warner, had a post office between 1895 and 1904. The town briefly became a connection point when it got another rail line to Webbers Falls in 1911, this one courtesy of the Webbers Falls, Shawnee and Western Railroad. But that railway ceased operations in 1914, was reorganized as the Webbers Falls Railroad in 1916, and was dismantled by 1918.

Connors State Agricultural College was founded in Warner in 1908. A second campus in Muskogee was added later. The school was renamed Connors State College in 2001. It is now the town's largest employer.
