This information has not been verified:"," Anne was the daughter of Brainard Warner Sr. and Mary Parker Warner. At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and two brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton."," Brainard Warner Sr made a fortune in real estate, banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland. He was the founder of Kensington Maryland. His company was responsible for the oversight of building over 1,000 buildings and homes in the Washington DC area He was also the founder of the Washington Pubic library."," Bess's mother was Mary Jacobs Parker Warner who was descended from Edward Doty, a Pilgrim and indentured servant who sailed over on the Mayflower, signed the Mayflower Compact and helped to settle Plymouth Colony."," So Anne grew up in a family that money and status. She had two brothers who served as consuls: Brainard Jr and Southard. Southard committed suicide while serving in Manchuria (China) in 1914."," Neither Bess, the oldest child, nor Anne ever married. They lived together all of their lives until Bess's death in 1942. They grew up in a house that their father built at 2100 Massachusetts Avenue. As adults they lived in an apartment at 1868 Columbia Road in Washington DC.","Accessioned and minimally processed in May 2010 by SCRC staff.","Diaries, accounts and address book of Anna P. (Anne) Warner (b. 1876) of Washington D.C.  and Rebecca P. (Bess) Warner, sisters of Washington, D.C.  The sisters came from a well-off family and traveled extensively in Europe. They remained single and shared an apartment.  It has not been determined if one of the two 1899 diaries and the address book were kept by one of the sisters or by another family member."," Most of the diaries contain detailed entries on their travels abroad, including description of sites  visited, names of hotel, restaurants, stores and also of friends and acquaintances who lived in some the their travel destinations.  Also included with two of the diaries are a few receipts and business cards."," Mss. Acc. 2010.693 contains a genealogical chart of the Warner family, as well as modern pictures of Brainard Warner's house in Montgomery County, Maryland."," For a more detailed description and excerpts, provided by the seller, see finding aid link below."," For detailed genealogical  information on the Warner family, also provided by the seller, see biographical links above. Please note that the description and information provided by the seller has not been verified for accuary.","Includes mainly a trip to Rome, Italy.","The following information has been provided by the seller: \"This diary covers Anna' trip with sister Bess (Rebecca) and brother Brainard to Leipzig. They were there from Jan to Sept. It then continues with Anne and Bess's trip to Frankfurt, Bale, Geneva, Interlaken, Lucerne, Genoa, Rome and Naples.This is a long thin diary with lengthier entries. In the back is a detailed listing of of all the operas and concerts she went to with the dates listed. There's a listing of names and addresses. There's also a listing of European cities and the hotels she stayed at .

At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and three brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr , Southard and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton. Brainard Warner Sr was a dynamic man who made a fortune in real estate , banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland.

She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 36. Southard was 27 and Anne 32 in 1908. Southard was one of Anne's younger brothers. He was in the US Diplomatic corps and served as a consul in a variety of countries. Six years later Southard would be dead. In 1914 he was serving in China. He was hospitalized in an institution and ended up committing suicide by shooting himself. So the diary entries about Southard are poignant. Anne loved him and wrote that by far the nicest sight she had seen in Europe was his face which she hadn't seen in a year and a half.\"","The following description and transcription has been provided by the seller and has not been verified. It goes far beyond the scope of this single diary and includes background information from other family papers that were at the seller's disposal as well as Warner family genealogical research: \"This is the 1925 to 1929 handwritten diary of Anna P Warner. It's a Ward's 5 Year Diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. There are entries for 1925 to 1928. The diary gives a surprising view into the life of the wealthy in Washington D.C. in the 1920's. Anne wrote of famous historical events like Lindbergh's flight and Carl Sandburg's poetry reading as well as family life, dinners, society events, Bess's work as a librarian in the free library system, riding in their Hupmobile, driving to see the Cherry blossoms, trips to Atlantic city and much much more. From a number of letters and diaries I know that Bess Warner called her sister Anna Warner \"Anne\". Anne was the 4th child born to Brainard H Warner Sr and Mary Jacobs Warner. She was born in 1876 and so was 49 at the beginning of this diary in 1925. She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 52. Also mentioned frequently are her brother Brainard Jr who was 50, her younger sister Mary Warner Cooke who was 46 and the youngest brother Andrew Parker (called Parker) who was 42. Other people mentioned frequently: Mary's husband Levi and daughters Virginia and Polly, Brainard's wife Mary Moore and their children Rebecca, Molly and Brainard III. Also Aunt Harriett, Aunt Lucy and Aunt Bessie. Included with the diary are: * some handwritten notes on scraps of paper and * a Xerox photocopy of very neat photograph (the original photograph is not included in the auction). The picture shows an older man with a mustache, short top hat, suit with vest, pocket watch chain. He's standing in front of a large house next to a serious blond haired boy with a bowl haircut, dressed in a sailor suit staring into the camera. It was stuck in the diary on the day of Brainard Jr's birthday in June. In the background you can barely see a woman. I'm not sure if Brainard Jr is the older man or the young boy. The boy looks like he's 8 to 10 years old. Brainard Jr was 10 in 1885 when his father was 38. The man in this picture looks older than 38. Brainard Jr was born in 1875. Brainard III was born in 1926 when his father was 51. The older man in the picture looks 50 or older. The problem is Brainard Jr died in 1933 when his son was just 7. It's possible Brainard was 7 and big for his age and that this picture was taken in 1933. I tend to think that Brainard Jr is the older man and Brainard III is the boy. Also included is a small newspaper clipping. It's edged in black and is written in German. A rough translation is: \" Today 5 ½ o'clock Elisabeth Merhaut Quiet sleep Weststrabe 59 II 16 June 1925 Faithful commemorate Margarete Harff\" From the 1899 diary of Bess Warner we know that Elisabeth Merhaut helped Bess and Anne settle into their home in Leipzig where they lived for approximately a year. Elisabeth lived in a studio, was an artist and gave German lessons to both Bess and Anne Warner. This looks to be the notice of Elisabeth's death on June 16, 1925 BACKGROUND Anne was the daughter of Brainard Warner Sr and Mary Parker Warner. At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and two brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton. Brainard Warner Sr was a dynamic man who made a fortune in real estate , banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland. He was the founder of Kensington Maryland. His company was responsible for the oversight of building over 1000 buildings and homes in the Washington DC area He was also the founder of the Washington Pubic library. Bess's mother was Mary Jacobs Parker Warner who was descended from Edward Doty, a Pilgrim and indentured servant who sailed over on the Mayflower, signed the Mayflower Compact and helped to settle Plymouth Colony. So Anne grew up in a family that money and status. She had two brothers who served as consuls: Brainard Jr and Southard. Southard committed suicide while serving in Manchuria (China) in 1914. Neither Bess, the oldest child, nor Anne ever married. They lived together all of their lives until Bess's death in 1942. They grew up in a house that their father built at 2100 Massachusetts avenue. As adults they lived in an apartment at 1868 Columbia Road in Washington DC. CONDITION: This is a 5 ½ \" x 5\" diary. It's a 5-year diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. . The Brown leather covers are worn and have detached from the diary. \"A Line A Day\" is stamped in gold on the front cover. The pages of the diary are edged in gold. There is some chipping on the front and back pages but the content is intact. The front page is taped on the back. The words are all readable. This is a string bound diary. In some sections the string seems to be weakening and in other sections they are still pretty tight.   Each page is divided into 5 sections. Anne started with 1925. The writing is mostly in black ink that has toned to sepia. The handwriting is very legible. On some entries the ink on the opposite side has washed out in the paper a bit. So the words look like they have a light to medium brown background. But I had no problem reading the entries.   * 1925 – 194 entries * 1926 - 248 entries * 1927 – 106 entries * 1928 – 78 entries * 1929 – 1 entry       627 entries for 5 years (really 4 since there's ony 1 entry in 1929)       COMMENT:   The first Warner diary I read was written by Bess in 1899. She, Anne and Brainard were in their 20's and living for a time in Leipzig Germany where Brainard was the US Consul. Bess was at times insecure and uncertain. Other times she was arrogant and judgmental. I found that diary fascinating.   This diary was written by Anne 26 years later. I ended up loving this diary and reading every entry. Anne was very good at painting a picture of their lives in the early 1920's.   One thing that struck me was that Anne, Bess and Mary Warner Cooke were strong, independent women. But the men in their lives were also very bright and accomplished. Brainard Warner Sr. was a man with a real talent for leadership who could bring people together. He ended up a very wealthy man. Brainard Jr. was a consul and later a successful Washington attorney. Levi Cooke was a journalist who became a lawyer, was well known by most US senators, represented the Brewer's association, was associated with the Busch family of St Louis, was known internationally and was highly regarded by the ABA.   The relationship between Bess and Anne was interesting. Bess worked as a librarian in Takoma Maryland which was part of the Washington Public library system. Anne seemed to handle the family accounts, finances, trust company visits, driving and taking care of the family car (a Hupmobile!) and household responsibilities.   Although neither woman married they were involved with family and children on a daily basis. Their sister Mary lived nearby and her two daughters, Polly and Virginia, were very frequent visitors at Ann and Bess's home. Ann and Bess also visited their brother Brainard's home weekly and saw his children: Rebecca, Mollie and Brainard IV.   Anne was also involved with Children's Home work and visited a local school to help with programs there. She and Bess were also involved in a number of societies.   As I read this diary I noticed that Anne and Bess were very frugal compared to their sister Mary and her two brothers. They lived in an apartment rather than owning a large home. Mary Warner Cooke and Brainard Warner Jr built and owned large and beautiful homes. Anne and Bess owned the same Hupmobile for at least 4 years. Their sister Mary drove several new cars including a Cadillac. Anne and Mary didn't do any international travel from 1925 to 1928. In 1929 they did sail to Europe. They also had their hats \"renovated\" or reblocked.   I know they received and lived on payments from a trust established by their father. Brainard, Mary and Parker also received trust payments. But Brainard was a successful lawyer, Levi Cooke was also a successful lawyer and Parker was employed by the Department of the Interior.   So I'm not sure if Anne and Bess were naturally frugal or if they had a financial need to live carefully.   What I learned about Anne:   * She loved children, her nieces and nephews, her sister Bess, flowers, the Cherry Blossoms (she really loved the Cherry Blossoms), the Children's Home, the symphony, plays, silent movies, current events, listening to the radio, reading. * Anne went to Oak Hill Cemetery often. Her father, mother, brother Southard and several siblings who didn't survive into adulthood were all buried there. She arranged for seasonal flowers and ferns to decorate the graves. (Eventually she and all her brothers and sisters, except for Brainard Jr, and Mary Warner Cooke would be buried there). * She was a very considerate person. If a friend was in the hospital she went to visit. If her niece Virginia had one of her headaches or was sick, Anne went to visit her. She cared for Bess when she was sick. * She loved driving the Hupmobile. She and Bess drove all over. When they really wanted to relax they drove out to Haines Point MD and looked out at the ocean * In 1926 Ann went to Columbia Hospital for Women and spent three weeks there. I think it's likely she had an operation, perhaps a hysterectomy. After her stay in the hospital she seemed more introspective. She started including quotes like \"Live each day as though it might be the last\" in her diary. She wrote about the benefits of relaxation and she and Bess went to Atlantic City to relax on the beach and get treatments at the spa.   Here are some other things that were interesting:       * 1868 Columbia Road (where Anne and Bess lived) is across from Kalorama Park. The building still stands and is called \"The Norwood\". It's a 7-story brown and beige stone building with a small circular driveway in front. The front of the building faces Kalorama Park. The apartments there are described as having big rooms, high ceilings and wooden floors. Since the 1920's I am sure that the original larger apartments were subdivided into smaller apartment space. But the exterior is very nice.       * Mary Warner and her husband Levi built a new home at 2409 Wyoming Ave NW. It was a 6 bedroom, 5.5 bath home with 7564 square feet. It still stands. * Bess and Anne drove out to Primrose Street in Chevy Chase MD a lot. This was the home of their brother Brainard Jr. Here's a photograph of the home today http://www.justnewlistings.com/idx/mris/MC7260540/details.html) * Anne frequently mentioned Mr \u0026 Mrs Kennedy in her diary. I don't know if this family was related to Joe Kennedy, father of President John F Kennedy. But Brainard Warner Jr's family did summer in Massachusetts and eventually had family that lived in Hyannisport, MA. * Virginia was 10 in 1925 and Polly was 11 ½. Their full names were Virginia P Cooke and Polly Mary Cooke. In later years Virginia did a lot of world travel with her mother. Polly did some traveling with them but her name disappears from passenger lists and border crossings around 1932. It's very possible she got married around that time and traveled under her married name. * 1933 was a very bad year for the Warner family. They lost Brainard Warner Jr who died in September at age 58. And they lost Levi Cooke, the husband of Mary Warner, in December at age 50. The only male presence left in the family was Parker Warner who traveled throughout the United States as a surveyor. * Levi Cooke died in December 1933. He was a lawyer and also a legislative representative for the US Brewers' Association. He had acute indigestion and was confined to his bed. Then he died. (It was a heart attack). Cooke was known to nearly every member of Congress. He testified before the House on the Collier beer bill. He was an advocate of modifying the Volstead Act. He was an authority on liquor laws in foreign countries and an expert in constitutional law. http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1955\u0026dat=19321226\u0026id=dG4hAAAAIBAJ\u0026sjid=wocFAAAAIBAJ\u0026pg=3691,4496038 * According to the terms of Brainard Warner Sr's will the income generated from a trust would be divided equally between his wife and 9 children. When his wife Mary H died (in 1954) then the income and principal would be divided among the 9 children. If any had died then any grandchildren would share the 1/9 portion of the trust division. The upshot of this was that Bess and Anne and their brothers and sister had income they received from the trust. When Bess died she willed her 1/9 portion to Anne. * Of all the Warner children who married, only Brainard Jr had a son whom he named Brainard III. Brainard III had a son whom he named Brainard IV (\"Hank\") and who would be around 50 years old. Brainard IV (Hank) has a brother Jonathan and a sister Abby. Brainard IV is married and has a son but I couldn't confirm his name was also Brainard.   CONTENT :   I've summarized a lot of the entries in the diary. As I read through the diary it was hard to exclude material. But there's a LOT of material that I didn't transcribe. Anne mentioned the weather each day and I also excluded most of that material. I highlighted the entries that I liked.   1925   In 1925 Anne and Bess both lived in Washington D.C. Bess worked as a librarian at the library in Takoma MD.

She saw a conk drum by a sheep. The streets are narrow and paved with stone. The houses are low and white, pale pink or buff. The sidewalks are fancy with inlaid stones that look like mosaics.

A number of 1st class passengers and about 200 3rd class passengers left the ship. Anne and others left the boat later and took a carriage with a guide. They went to the Church of the Annunciation. They drove by Campo Santo and one of the most remarkable cemeteries. Since 1818 there were more than 1,500,000 Catholics buried there. Rich people can buy a niche for $2000. Other crypts are beautifully carves and cost $10,000. When there wasn't a carved statue there were framed pictures of the deceased hung over the door.

They could see Corsica in the distance They landed at Naples. They had gotten up early and saw Capri long before they came into harbor. They spent an hour saying Goodbye to each other and waiting for permission to leave the Republic. When they did go into the Customs House it seemed like pandemonium. Many were rustling wildly trying to find someone who spoke English. Anne found herself on a bus with Mrs Schull and Miss Schull. They went to the hotel Santa Lucia where they had beautiful rooms overlooking the Bay of Naples. Vesuvius was off to the left and Castle 'Oro was straight in front.

They went to the museum and looked at some paintings. Then they went to the royal stables. There were about 300 horses and 500 carriages. They saw the new guard come into the palace. They couldn't go into the palace because it was the anniversary of the revolution of 1848. They went to the Dom, a beautiful church across from the palace and where the Kaiser attended services frequently. They went to lunch with Mr Thackera the Consul General to Berlin. Anne walked back to the hotel with Southard and the others. They went to see \"Seegfried\" at the Opera House. Afterwards they all went to the Palast for delicious omelets and beer. Southard and Mr Case went to Metz to see where they grew trees from seed. Anne, Carol and Laurence went to the Royal Palace. They had to put on felt slippers so they wouldn't scratch the floors. Anne thought the Palace was beautiful but that the interior was dark and gloomy. They saw the Room of the Black Eagle, Throne Room, Chapel, Banquet Hall and Picture gallery.

They had a fine time and met a lot of people. Then they met Mr Case at the \"Rheingold\" for dinner. They went to see a variety. Then they went to Leipzig. (Anne, her sister Bess and broth Brainard Jr had lived in Leipzig in 1899-1900. At the time Brainard was the US. consul to Leipzig.) Frau Merhaut was waiting to greet them with some early flowers. Her sister had also sent a pretty bunch. \"It seemed so good to get back to our old abode that I was quite reduced to tears. Southard has the place fixed up in wonderfully good taste\" They had tea across the street, went shopping and returned to the consulate.They went to dinner with old friends.

Tenders came out with passengers and baggage. They passed the isle of White and other ports on the English coast. After dinner Anne, Carol and Mr Bendecke played bridge. Anne received a letter from Bess and a telegram from Southard. Carol met a Mr Brown who had her as a student at Old Point when she was there. The seas grew tough and Anne didn't care for lunch or dinner. The next day the seas were still rough. Anne got up, dressed and stayed on a lounge chair. Carol didn't get up.

She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 36. Southard was 27 and Anne 32 in 1908. Southard was one of Anne's younger brothers. He was in the US Diplomatic corps and served as a consul in a variety of countries. Six years later Southard would be dead. In 1914 he was serving in China. He was hospitalized in an institution and ended up committing suicide by shooting himself. So the diary entries about Southard are poignant. Anne loved him and wrote that by far the nicest sight she had seen in Europe was his face which she hadn't seen in a year and a half.\"","The following description and transcription has been provided by the seller and has not been verified. It goes far beyond the scope of this single diary and includes background information from other family papers that were at the seller's disposal as well as Warner family genealogical research: \"This is the 1925 to 1929 handwritten diary of Anna P Warner. It's a Ward's 5 Year Diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. There are entries for 1925 to 1928. The diary gives a surprising view into the life of the wealthy in Washington D.C. in the 1920's. Anne wrote of famous historical events like Lindbergh's flight and Carl Sandburg's poetry reading as well as family life, dinners, society events, Bess's work as a librarian in the free library system, riding in their Hupmobile, driving to see the Cherry blossoms, trips to Atlantic city and much much more. From a number of letters and diaries I know that Bess Warner called her sister Anna Warner \"Anne\". Anne was the 4th child born to Brainard H Warner Sr and Mary Jacobs Warner. She was born in 1876 and so was 49 at the beginning of this diary in 1925. She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 52. Also mentioned frequently are her brother Brainard Jr who was 50, her younger sister Mary Warner Cooke who was 46 and the youngest brother Andrew Parker (called Parker) who was 42. Other people mentioned frequently: Mary's husband Levi and daughters Virginia and Polly, Brainard's wife Mary Moore and their children Rebecca, Molly and Brainard III. Also Aunt Harriett, Aunt Lucy and Aunt Bessie. Included with the diary are: * some handwritten notes on scraps of paper and * a Xerox photocopy of very neat photograph (the original photograph is not included in the auction). The picture shows an older man with a mustache, short top hat, suit with vest, pocket watch chain. He's standing in front of a large house next to a serious blond haired boy with a bowl haircut, dressed in a sailor suit staring into the camera. It was stuck in the diary on the day of Brainard Jr's birthday in June. In the background you can barely see a woman. I'm not sure if Brainard Jr is the older man or the young boy. The boy looks like he's 8 to 10 years old. Brainard Jr was 10 in 1885 when his father was 38. The man in this picture looks older than 38. Brainard Jr was born in 1875. Brainard III was born in 1926 when his father was 51. The older man in the picture looks 50 or older. The problem is Brainard Jr died in 1933 when his son was just 7. It's possible Brainard was 7 and big for his age and that this picture was taken in 1933. I tend to think that Brainard Jr is the older man and Brainard III is the boy. Also included is a small newspaper clipping. It's edged in black and is written in German. A rough translation is: \" Today 5 ½ o'clock Elisabeth Merhaut Quiet sleep Weststrabe 59 II 16 June 1925 Faithful commemorate Margarete Harff\" From the 1899 diary of Bess Warner we know that Elisabeth Merhaut helped Bess and Anne settle into their home in Leipzig where they lived for approximately a year. Elisabeth lived in a studio, was an artist and gave German lessons to both Bess and Anne Warner. This looks to be the notice of Elisabeth's death on June 16, 1925 BACKGROUND Anne was the daughter of Brainard Warner Sr and Mary Parker Warner. At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and two brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton. Brainard Warner Sr was a dynamic man who made a fortune in real estate , banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland. He was the founder of Kensington Maryland. His company was responsible for the oversight of building over 1000 buildings and homes in the Washington DC area He was also the founder of the Washington Pubic library. Bess's mother was Mary Jacobs Parker Warner who was descended from Edward Doty, a Pilgrim and indentured servant who sailed over on the Mayflower, signed the Mayflower Compact and helped to settle Plymouth Colony. So Anne grew up in a family that money and status. She had two brothers who served as consuls: Brainard Jr and Southard. Southard committed suicide while serving in Manchuria (China) in 1914. Neither Bess, the oldest child, nor Anne ever married. They lived together all of their lives until Bess's death in 1942. They grew up in a house that their father built at 2100 Massachusetts avenue. As adults they lived in an apartment at 1868 Columbia Road in Washington DC. CONDITION: This is a 5 ½ \" x 5\" diary. It's a 5-year diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. . The Brown leather covers are worn and have detached from the diary. \"A Line A Day\" is stamped in gold on the front cover. The pages of the diary are edged in gold. There is some chipping on the front and back pages but the content is intact. The front page is taped on the back. The words are all readable. This is a string bound diary. In some sections the string seems to be weakening and in other sections they are still pretty tight.   Each page is divided into 5 sections. Anne started with 1925. The writing is mostly in black ink that has toned to sepia. The handwriting is very legible. On some entries the ink on the opposite side has washed out in the paper a bit. So the words look like they have a light to medium brown background. But I had no problem reading the entries.   * 1925 – 194 entries * 1926 - 248 entries * 1927 – 106 entries * 1928 – 78 entries * 1929 – 1 entry       627 entries for 5 years (really 4 since there's ony 1 entry in 1929)       COMMENT:   The first Warner diary I read was written by Bess in 1899. She, Anne and Brainard were in their 20's and living for a time in Leipzig Germany where Brainard was the US Consul. Bess was at times insecure and uncertain. Other times she was arrogant and judgmental. I found that diary fascinating.   This diary was written by Anne 26 years later. I ended up loving this diary and reading every entry. Anne was very good at painting a picture of their lives in the early 1920's.   One thing that struck me was that Anne, Bess and Mary Warner Cooke were strong, independent women. But the men in their lives were also very bright and accomplished. Brainard Warner Sr. was a man with a real talent for leadership who could bring people together. He ended up a very wealthy man. Brainard Jr. was a consul and later a successful Washington attorney. Levi Cooke was a journalist who became a lawyer, was well known by most US senators, represented the Brewer's association, was associated with the Busch family of St Louis, was known internationally and was highly regarded by the ABA.   The relationship between Bess and Anne was interesting. Bess worked as a librarian in Takoma Maryland which was part of the Washington Public library system. Anne seemed to handle the family accounts, finances, trust company visits, driving and taking care of the family car (a Hupmobile!) and household responsibilities.   Although neither woman married they were involved with family and children on a daily basis. Their sister Mary lived nearby and her two daughters, Polly and Virginia, were very frequent visitors at Ann and Bess's home. Ann and Bess also visited their brother Brainard's home weekly and saw his children: Rebecca, Mollie and Brainard IV.   Anne was also involved with Children's Home work and visited a local school to help with programs there. She and Bess were also involved in a number of societies.   As I read this diary I noticed that Anne and Bess were very frugal compared to their sister Mary and her two brothers. They lived in an apartment rather than owning a large home. Mary Warner Cooke and Brainard Warner Jr built and owned large and beautiful homes. Anne and Bess owned the same Hupmobile for at least 4 years. Their sister Mary drove several new cars including a Cadillac. Anne and Mary didn't do any international travel from 1925 to 1928. In 1929 they did sail to Europe. They also had their hats \"renovated\" or reblocked.   I know they received and lived on payments from a trust established by their father. Brainard, Mary and Parker also received trust payments. But Brainard was a successful lawyer, Levi Cooke was also a successful lawyer and Parker was employed by the Department of the Interior.   So I'm not sure if Anne and Bess were naturally frugal or if they had a financial need to live carefully.   What I learned about Anne:   * She loved children, her nieces and nephews, her sister Bess, flowers, the Cherry Blossoms (she really loved the Cherry Blossoms), the Children's Home, the symphony, plays, silent movies, current events, listening to the radio, reading. * Anne went to Oak Hill Cemetery often. Her father, mother, brother Southard and several siblings who didn't survive into adulthood were all buried there. She arranged for seasonal flowers and ferns to decorate the graves. (Eventually she and all her brothers and sisters, except for Brainard Jr, and Mary Warner Cooke would be buried there). * She was a very considerate person. If a friend was in the hospital she went to visit. If her niece Virginia had one of her headaches or was sick, Anne went to visit her. She cared for Bess when she was sick. * She loved driving the Hupmobile. She and Bess drove all over. When they really wanted to relax they drove out to Haines Point MD and looked out at the ocean * In 1926 Ann went to Columbia Hospital for Women and spent three weeks there. I think it's likely she had an operation, perhaps a hysterectomy. After her stay in the hospital she seemed more introspective. She started including quotes like \"Live each day as though it might be the last\" in her diary. She wrote about the benefits of relaxation and she and Bess went to Atlantic City to relax on the beach and get treatments at the spa.   Here are some other things that were interesting:       * 1868 Columbia Road (where Anne and Bess lived) is across from Kalorama Park. The building still stands and is called \"The Norwood\". It's a 7-story brown and beige stone building with a small circular driveway in front. The front of the building faces Kalorama Park. The apartments there are described as having big rooms, high ceilings and wooden floors. Since the 1920's I am sure that the original larger apartments were subdivided into smaller apartment space. But the exterior is very nice.       * Mary Warner and her husband Levi built a new home at 2409 Wyoming Ave NW. It was a 6 bedroom, 5.5 bath home with 7564 square feet. It still stands. * Bess and Anne drove out to Primrose Street in Chevy Chase MD a lot. This was the home of their brother Brainard Jr. Here's a photograph of the home today http://www.justnewlistings.com/idx/mris/MC7260540/details.html) * Anne frequently mentioned Mr \u0026 Mrs Kennedy in her diary. I don't know if this family was related to Joe Kennedy, father of President John F Kennedy. But Brainard Warner Jr's family did summer in Massachusetts and eventually had family that lived in Hyannisport, MA. * Virginia was 10 in 1925 and Polly was 11 ½. Their full names were Virginia P Cooke and Polly Mary Cooke. In later years Virginia did a lot of world travel with her mother. Polly did some traveling with them but her name disappears from passenger lists and border crossings around 1932. It's very possible she got married around that time and traveled under her married name. * 1933 was a very bad year for the Warner family. They lost Brainard Warner Jr who died in September at age 58. And they lost Levi Cooke, the husband of Mary Warner, in December at age 50. The only male presence left in the family was Parker Warner who traveled throughout the United States as a surveyor. * Levi Cooke died in December 1933. He was a lawyer and also a legislative representative for the US Brewers' Association. He had acute indigestion and was confined to his bed. Then he died. (It was a heart attack). Cooke was known to nearly every member of Congress. He testified before the House on the Collier beer bill. He was an advocate of modifying the Volstead Act. He was an authority on liquor laws in foreign countries and an expert in constitutional law. http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1955\u0026dat=19321226\u0026id=dG4hAAAAIBAJ\u0026sjid=wocFAAAAIBAJ\u0026pg=3691,4496038 * According to the terms of Brainard Warner Sr's will the income generated from a trust would be divided equally between his wife and 9 children. When his wife Mary H died (in 1954) then the income and principal would be divided among the 9 children. If any had died then any grandchildren would share the 1/9 portion of the trust division. The upshot of this was that Bess and Anne and their brothers and sister had income they received from the trust. When Bess died she willed her 1/9 portion to Anne. * Of all the Warner children who married, only Brainard Jr had a son whom he named Brainard III. Brainard III had a son whom he named Brainard IV (\"Hank\") and who would be around 50 years old. Brainard IV (Hank) has a brother Jonathan and a sister Abby. Brainard IV is married and has a son but I couldn't confirm his name was also Brainard.   CONTENT :   I've summarized a lot of the entries in the diary. As I read through the diary it was hard to exclude material. But there's a LOT of material that I didn't transcribe. Anne mentioned the weather each day and I also excluded most of that material. I highlighted the entries that I liked.   1925   In 1925 Anne and Bess both lived in Washington D.C. Bess worked as a librarian at the library in Takoma MD.

At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and three brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr , Southard and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton. Brainard Warner Sr was a dynamic man who made a fortune in real estate , banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland. He was the founder of Kensington Maryland. His company was responsible for the oversight of building over 1000 buildings and homes in the Washington DC area He was also the founder of the Washington Pubic library. Annes's mother was Mary Jacobs Parker Warner who was descended from Edward Doty, a Pilgrim and indentured servant who sailed over on the Mayflower, signed the Mayflower Compact and helped to settle Plymouth Colony. So Anne grew up in a family that money and status. She had two brothers who served as consuls: Brainard Jr and Southard. Southard committed suicide while serving in Manchuria (China) in 1914. Neither Bess, the oldest child, nor Anne ever married. They lived together all of their lives until Bess's death in 1942. They grew up in a house that their father built at 2100 Massachusetts avenue.

She saw a conk drum by a sheep. The streets are narrow and paved with stone. The houses are low and white, pale pink or buff. The sidewalks are fancy with inlaid stones that look like mosaics. They returned to the boat and watched the island as they sailed away. Later they played shuffle board The Republic docked in Genoa. A number of 1st class passengers and about 200 3rd class passengers left the ship. Anne and others left the boat later and took a carriage with a guide. They went to the Church of the Annunciation.

They could see Corsica in the distance They landed at Naples. They had gotten up early and saw Capri long before they came into harbor.

They went to the museum and looked at some paintings. Then they went to the royal stables. There were about 300 horses and 500 carriages. They saw the new guard come into the palace. They couldn't go into the palace because it was the anniversary of the revolution of 1848.

Southard and Mr Case went to Metz to see where they grew trees from seed. Anne, Carol and Laurence went to the Royal Palace. They had to put on felt slippers so they wouldn't scratch the floors. Anne thought the Palace was beautiful but that the interior was dark and gloomy. They saw the Room of the Black Eagle, Throne Room, Chapel, Banquet Hall and Picture gallery.

(Anne, her sister Bess and broth Brainard Jr had lived in Leipzig in 1899-1900. At the time Brainard was the US. consul to Leipzig.) Frau Merhaut was waiting to greet them with some early flowers. Her sister had also sent a pretty bunch. \"It seemed so good to get back to our old abode that I was quite reduced to tears. Southard has the place fixed up in wonderfully good taste\" They had tea across the street, went shopping and returned to the consulate.They went to dinner with old friends.

She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 36. Southard was 27 and Anne 32 in 1908. Southard was one of Anne's younger brothers. He was in the US Diplomatic corps and served as a consul in a variety of countries. Six years later Southard would be dead. In 1914 he was serving in China. He was hospitalized in an institution and ended up committing suicide by shooting himself. So the diary entries about Southard are poignant. Anne loved him and wrote that by far the nicest sight she had seen in Europe was his face which she hadn't seen in a year and a half.\"\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThe following description and transcription has been provided by the seller and has not been verified. It goes far beyond the scope of this single diary and includes background information from other family papers that were at the seller's disposal as well as Warner family genealogical research: \"This is the 1925 to 1929 handwritten diary of Anna P Warner. It's a Ward's 5 Year Diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. There are entries for 1925 to 1928. The diary gives a surprising view into the life of the wealthy in Washington D.C. in the 1920's. Anne wrote of famous historical events like Lindbergh's flight and Carl Sandburg's poetry reading as well as family life, dinners, society events, Bess's work as a librarian in the free library system, riding in their Hupmobile, driving to see the Cherry blossoms, trips to Atlantic city and much much more. From a number of letters and diaries I know that Bess Warner called her sister Anna Warner \"Anne\". Anne was the 4th child born to Brainard H Warner Sr and Mary Jacobs Warner. She was born in 1876 and so was 49 at the beginning of this diary in 1925. She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 52. Also mentioned frequently are her brother Brainard Jr who was 50, her younger sister Mary Warner Cooke who was 46 and the youngest brother Andrew Parker (called Parker) who was 42. Other people mentioned frequently: Mary's husband Levi and daughters Virginia and Polly, Brainard's wife Mary Moore and their children Rebecca, Molly and Brainard III. Also Aunt Harriett, Aunt Lucy and Aunt Bessie. Included with the diary are: * some handwritten notes on scraps of paper and * a Xerox photocopy of very neat photograph (the original photograph is not included in the auction). The picture shows an older man with a mustache, short top hat, suit with vest, pocket watch chain. He's standing in front of a large house next to a serious blond haired boy with a bowl haircut, dressed in a sailor suit staring into the camera. It was stuck in the diary on the day of Brainard Jr's birthday in June. In the background you can barely see a woman. I'm not sure if Brainard Jr is the older man or the young boy. The boy looks like he's 8 to 10 years old. Brainard Jr was 10 in 1885 when his father was 38. The man in this picture looks older than 38. Brainard Jr was born in 1875. Brainard III was born in 1926 when his father was 51. The older man in the picture looks 50 or older. The problem is Brainard Jr died in 1933 when his son was just 7. It's possible Brainard was 7 and big for his age and that this picture was taken in 1933. I tend to think that Brainard Jr is the older man and Brainard III is the boy. Also included is a small newspaper clipping. It's edged in black and is written in German. A rough translation is: \" Today 5 ½ o'clock Elisabeth Merhaut Quiet sleep Weststrabe 59 II 16 June 1925 Faithful commemorate Margarete Harff\" From the 1899 diary of Bess Warner we know that Elisabeth Merhaut helped Bess and Anne settle into their home in Leipzig where they lived for approximately a year. Elisabeth lived in a studio, was an artist and gave German lessons to both Bess and Anne Warner. This looks to be the notice of Elisabeth's death on June 16, 1925 BACKGROUND Anne was the daughter of Brainard Warner Sr and Mary Parker Warner. At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and two brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton. Brainard Warner Sr was a dynamic man who made a fortune in real estate , banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland. He was the founder of Kensington Maryland. His company was responsible for the oversight of building over 1000 buildings and homes in the Washington DC area He was also the founder of the Washington Pubic library. Bess's mother was Mary Jacobs Parker Warner who was descended from Edward Doty, a Pilgrim and indentured servant who sailed over on the Mayflower, signed the Mayflower Compact and helped to settle Plymouth Colony. So Anne grew up in a family that money and status. She had two brothers who served as consuls: Brainard Jr and Southard. Southard committed suicide while serving in Manchuria (China) in 1914. Neither Bess, the oldest child, nor Anne ever married. They lived together all of their lives until Bess's death in 1942. They grew up in a house that their father built at 2100 Massachusetts avenue. As adults they lived in an apartment at 1868 Columbia Road in Washington DC. CONDITION: This is a 5 ½ \" x 5\" diary. It's a 5-year diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. . The Brown leather covers are worn and have detached from the diary. \"A Line A Day\" is stamped in gold on the front cover. The pages of the diary are edged in gold. There is some chipping on the front and back pages but the content is intact. The front page is taped on the back. The words are all readable. This is a string bound diary. In some sections the string seems to be weakening and in other sections they are still pretty tight.   Each page is divided into 5 sections. Anne started with 1925. The writing is mostly in black ink that has toned to sepia. The handwriting is very legible. On some entries the ink on the opposite side has washed out in the paper a bit. So the words look like they have a light to medium brown background. But I had no problem reading the entries.   * 1925 – 194 entries * 1926 - 248 entries * 1927 – 106 entries * 1928 – 78 entries * 1929 – 1 entry       627 entries for 5 years (really 4 since there's ony 1 entry in 1929)       COMMENT:   The first Warner diary I read was written by Bess in 1899. She, Anne and Brainard were in their 20's and living for a time in Leipzig Germany where Brainard was the US Consul. Bess was at times insecure and uncertain. Other times she was arrogant and judgmental. I found that diary fascinating.   This diary was written by Anne 26 years later. I ended up loving this diary and reading every entry. Anne was very good at painting a picture of their lives in the early 1920's.   One thing that struck me was that Anne, Bess and Mary Warner Cooke were strong, independent women. But the men in their lives were also very bright and accomplished. Brainard Warner Sr. was a man with a real talent for leadership who could bring people together. He ended up a very wealthy man. Brainard Jr. was a consul and later a successful Washington attorney. Levi Cooke was a journalist who became a lawyer, was well known by most US senators, represented the Brewer's association, was associated with the Busch family of St Louis, was known internationally and was highly regarded by the ABA.   The relationship between Bess and Anne was interesting. Bess worked as a librarian in Takoma Maryland which was part of the Washington Public library system. Anne seemed to handle the family accounts, finances, trust company visits, driving and taking care of the family car (a Hupmobile!) and household responsibilities.   Although neither woman married they were involved with family and children on a daily basis. Their sister Mary lived nearby and her two daughters, Polly and Virginia, were very frequent visitors at Ann and Bess's home. Ann and Bess also visited their brother Brainard's home weekly and saw his children: Rebecca, Mollie and Brainard IV.   Anne was also involved with Children's Home work and visited a local school to help with programs there. She and Bess were also involved in a number of societies.   As I read this diary I noticed that Anne and Bess were very frugal compared to their sister Mary and her two brothers. They lived in an apartment rather than owning a large home. Mary Warner Cooke and Brainard Warner Jr built and owned large and beautiful homes. Anne and Bess owned the same Hupmobile for at least 4 years. Their sister Mary drove several new cars including a Cadillac. Anne and Mary didn't do any international travel from 1925 to 1928. In 1929 they did sail to Europe. They also had their hats \"renovated\" or reblocked.   I know they received and lived on payments from a trust established by their father. Brainard, Mary and Parker also received trust payments. But Brainard was a successful lawyer, Levi Cooke was also a successful lawyer and Parker was employed by the Department of the Interior.   So I'm not sure if Anne and Bess were naturally frugal or if they had a financial need to live carefully.   What I learned about Anne:   * She loved children, her nieces and nephews, her sister Bess, flowers, the Cherry Blossoms (she really loved the Cherry Blossoms), the Children's Home, the symphony, plays, silent movies, current events, listening to the radio, reading. * Anne went to Oak Hill Cemetery often. Her father, mother, brother Southard and several siblings who didn't survive into adulthood were all buried there. She arranged for seasonal flowers and ferns to decorate the graves. (Eventually she and all her brothers and sisters, except for Brainard Jr, and Mary Warner Cooke would be buried there). * She was a very considerate person. If a friend was in the hospital she went to visit. If her niece Virginia had one of her headaches or was sick, Anne went to visit her. She cared for Bess when she was sick. * She loved driving the Hupmobile. She and Bess drove all over. When they really wanted to relax they drove out to Haines Point MD and looked out at the ocean * In 1926 Ann went to Columbia Hospital for Women and spent three weeks there. I think it's likely she had an operation, perhaps a hysterectomy. After her stay in the hospital she seemed more introspective. She started including quotes like \"Live each day as though it might be the last\" in her diary. She wrote about the benefits of relaxation and she and Bess went to Atlantic City to relax on the beach and get treatments at the spa.   Here are some other things that were interesting:       * 1868 Columbia Road (where Anne and Bess lived) is across from Kalorama Park. The building still stands and is called \"The Norwood\". It's a 7-story brown and beige stone building with a small circular driveway in front. The front of the building faces Kalorama Park. The apartments there are described as having big rooms, high ceilings and wooden floors. Since the 1920's I am sure that the original larger apartments were subdivided into smaller apartment space. But the exterior is very nice.       * Mary Warner and her husband Levi built a new home at 2409 Wyoming Ave NW. It was a 6 bedroom, 5.5 bath home with 7564 square feet. It still stands. * Bess and Anne drove out to Primrose Street in Chevy Chase MD a lot. This was the home of their brother Brainard Jr. Here's a photograph of the home today http://www.justnewlistings.com/idx/mris/MC7260540/details.html) * Anne frequently mentioned Mr \u0026amp; Mrs Kennedy in her diary. I don't know if this family was related to Joe Kennedy, father of President John F Kennedy. But Brainard Warner Jr's family did summer in Massachusetts and eventually had family that lived in Hyannisport, MA. * Virginia was 10 in 1925 and Polly was 11 ½. Their full names were Virginia P Cooke and Polly Mary Cooke. In later years Virginia did a lot of world travel with her mother. Polly did some traveling with them but her name disappears from passenger lists and border crossings around 1932. It's very possible she got married around that time and traveled under her married name. * 1933 was a very bad year for the Warner family. They lost Brainard Warner Jr who died in September at age 58. And they lost Levi Cooke, the husband of Mary Warner, in December at age 50. The only male presence left in the family was Parker Warner who traveled throughout the United States as a surveyor. * Levi Cooke died in December 1933. He was a lawyer and also a legislative representative for the US Brewers' Association. He had acute indigestion and was confined to his bed. Then he died. (It was a heart attack). Cooke was known to nearly every member of Congress. He testified before the House on the Collier beer bill. He was an advocate of modifying the Volstead Act. He was an authority on liquor laws in foreign countries and an expert in constitutional law. http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1955\u0026amp;dat=19321226\u0026amp;id=dG4hAAAAIBAJ\u0026amp;sjid=wocFAAAAIBAJ\u0026amp;pg=3691,4496038 * According to the terms of Brainard Warner Sr's will the income generated from a trust would be divided equally between his wife and 9 children. When his wife Mary H died (in 1954) then the income and principal would be divided among the 9 children. If any had died then any grandchildren would share the 1/9 portion of the trust division. The upshot of this was that Bess and Anne and their brothers and sister had income they received from the trust. When Bess died she willed her 1/9 portion to Anne. * Of all the Warner children who married, only Brainard Jr had a son whom he named Brainard III. Brainard III had a son whom he named Brainard IV (\"Hank\") and who would be around 50 years old. Brainard IV (Hank) has a brother Jonathan and a sister Abby. Brainard IV is married and has a son but I couldn't confirm his name was also Brainard.   CONTENT :   I've summarized a lot of the entries in the diary. As I read through the diary it was hard to exclude material. But there's a LOT of material that I didn't transcribe. Anne mentioned the weather each day and I also excluded most of that material. I highlighted the entries that I liked.   1925   In 1925 Anne and Bess both lived in Washington D.C. Bess worked as a librarian at the library in Takoma MD.

She saw a conk drum by a sheep. The streets are narrow and paved with stone. The houses are low and white, pale pink or buff. The sidewalks are fancy with inlaid stones that look like mosaics.

A number of 1st class passengers and about 200 3rd class passengers left the ship. Anne and others left the boat later and took a carriage with a guide. They went to the Church of the Annunciation.

They could see Corsica in the distance They landed at Naples. They had gotten up early and saw Capri long before they came into harbor. They spent an hour saying Goodbye to each other and waiting for permission to leave the Republic. When they did go into the Customs House it seemed like pandemonium. Many were rustling wildly trying to find someone who spoke English. Anne found herself on a bus with Mrs Schull and Miss Schull. They went to the hotel Santa Lucia where they had beautiful rooms overlooking the Bay of Naples. Vesuvius was off to the left and Castle 'Oro was straight in front.

They arrived and passed through a public garden before entering \"the greatest gambling house in the world\". They had to buy admission tickets. The first thing they noticed was the \"immense quiet\" of the place. There were hundreds playing but from the expressions on their faces Anne couldn't tell if they were winning or losing. There was no excitement. They saw an actress who is considered the most beautiful woman in Europe. They watched the players for an hour and then went across the street to a café to eat.

They went to the museum and looked at some paintings. Then they went to the royal stables. There were about 300 horses and 500 carriages. They saw the new guard come into the palace. They couldn't go into the palace because it was the anniversary of the revolution of 1848.

They had a fine time and met a lot of people. Then they met Mr Case at the \"Rheingold\" for dinner. They went to see a variety. Then they went to Leipzig. (Anne, her sister Bess and broth Brainard Jr had lived in Leipzig in 1899-1900. At the time Brainard was the US. consul to Leipzig.) Frau Merhaut was waiting to greet them with some early flowers. Her sister had also sent a pretty bunch. \"It seemed so good to get back to our old abode that I was quite reduced to tears. Southard has the place fixed up in wonderfully good taste\" They had tea across the street, went shopping and returned to the consulate.They went to dinner with old friends.

She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 36. Southard was 27 and Anne 32 in 1908. Southard was one of Anne's younger brothers. He was in the US Diplomatic corps and served as a consul in a variety of countries. Six years later Southard would be dead. In 1914 he was serving in China. He was hospitalized in an institution and ended up committing suicide by shooting himself. So the diary entries about Southard are poignant. Anne loved him and wrote that by far the nicest sight she had seen in Europe was his face which she hadn't seen in a year and a half.\"","The following description and transcription has been provided by the seller and has not been verified. It goes far beyond the scope of this single diary and includes background information from other family papers that were at the seller's disposal as well as Warner family genealogical research: \"This is the 1925 to 1929 handwritten diary of Anna P Warner. It's a Ward's 5 Year Diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. There are entries for 1925 to 1928. The diary gives a surprising view into the life of the wealthy in Washington D.C. in the 1920's. Anne wrote of famous historical events like Lindbergh's flight and Carl Sandburg's poetry reading as well as family life, dinners, society events, Bess's work as a librarian in the free library system, riding in their Hupmobile, driving to see the Cherry blossoms, trips to Atlantic city and much much more. From a number of letters and diaries I know that Bess Warner called her sister Anna Warner \"Anne\". Anne was the 4th child born to Brainard H Warner Sr and Mary Jacobs Warner. She was born in 1876 and so was 49 at the beginning of this diary in 1925. She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 52. Also mentioned frequently are her brother Brainard Jr who was 50, her younger sister Mary Warner Cooke who was 46 and the youngest brother Andrew Parker (called Parker) who was 42. Other people mentioned frequently: Mary's husband Levi and daughters Virginia and Polly, Brainard's wife Mary Moore and their children Rebecca, Molly and Brainard III. Also Aunt Harriett, Aunt Lucy and Aunt Bessie. Included with the diary are: * some handwritten notes on scraps of paper and * a Xerox photocopy of very neat photograph (the original photograph is not included in the auction). The picture shows an older man with a mustache, short top hat, suit with vest, pocket watch chain. He's standing in front of a large house next to a serious blond haired boy with a bowl haircut, dressed in a sailor suit staring into the camera. It was stuck in the diary on the day of Brainard Jr's birthday in June. In the background you can barely see a woman. I'm not sure if Brainard Jr is the older man or the young boy. The boy looks like he's 8 to 10 years old. Brainard Jr was 10 in 1885 when his father was 38. The man in this picture looks older than 38. Brainard Jr was born in 1875. Brainard III was born in 1926 when his father was 51. The older man in the picture looks 50 or older. The problem is Brainard Jr died in 1933 when his son was just 7. It's possible Brainard was 7 and big for his age and that this picture was taken in 1933. I tend to think that Brainard Jr is the older man and Brainard III is the boy. Also included is a small newspaper clipping. It's edged in black and is written in German. A rough translation is: \" Today 5 ½ o'clock Elisabeth Merhaut Quiet sleep Weststrabe 59 II 16 June 1925 Faithful commemorate Margarete Harff\" From the 1899 diary of Bess Warner we know that Elisabeth Merhaut helped Bess and Anne settle into their home in Leipzig where they lived for approximately a year. Elisabeth lived in a studio, was an artist and gave German lessons to both Bess and Anne Warner. This looks to be the notice of Elisabeth's death on June 16, 1925 BACKGROUND Anne was the daughter of Brainard Warner Sr and Mary Parker Warner. At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and two brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton. Brainard Warner Sr was a dynamic man who made a fortune in real estate , banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland. He was the founder of Kensington Maryland. His company was responsible for the oversight of building over 1000 buildings and homes in the Washington DC area He was also the founder of the Washington Pubic library. Bess's mother was Mary Jacobs Parker Warner who was descended from Edward Doty, a Pilgrim and indentured servant who sailed over on the Mayflower, signed the Mayflower Compact and helped to settle Plymouth Colony. So Anne grew up in a family that money and status. She had two brothers who served as consuls: Brainard Jr and Southard. Southard committed suicide while serving in Manchuria (China) in 1914. Neither Bess, the oldest child, nor Anne ever married. They lived together all of their lives until Bess's death in 1942. They grew up in a house that their father built at 2100 Massachusetts avenue. As adults they lived in an apartment at 1868 Columbia Road in Washington DC. CONDITION: This is a 5 ½ \" x 5\" diary. It's a 5-year diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. . The Brown leather covers are worn and have detached from the diary. \"A Line A Day\" is stamped in gold on the front cover. The pages of the diary are edged in gold. There is some chipping on the front and back pages but the content is intact. The front page is taped on the back. The words are all readable. This is a string bound diary. In some sections the string seems to be weakening and in other sections they are still pretty tight.   Each page is divided into 5 sections. Anne started with 1925. The writing is mostly in black ink that has toned to sepia. The handwriting is very legible. On some entries the ink on the opposite side has washed out in the paper a bit. So the words look like they have a light to medium brown background. But I had no problem reading the entries.   * 1925 – 194 entries * 1926 - 248 entries * 1927 – 106 entries * 1928 – 78 entries * 1929 – 1 entry       627 entries for 5 years (really 4 since there's ony 1 entry in 1929)       COMMENT:   The first Warner diary I read was written by Bess in 1899. She, Anne and Brainard were in their 20's and living for a time in Leipzig Germany where Brainard was the US Consul. Bess was at times insecure and uncertain. Other times she was arrogant and judgmental. I found that diary fascinating.   This diary was written by Anne 26 years later. I ended up loving this diary and reading every entry. Anne was very good at painting a picture of their lives in the early 1920's.   One thing that struck me was that Anne, Bess and Mary Warner Cooke were strong, independent women. But the men in their lives were also very bright and accomplished. Brainard Warner Sr. was a man with a real talent for leadership who could bring people together. He ended up a very wealthy man. Brainard Jr. was a consul and later a successful Washington attorney. Levi Cooke was a journalist who became a lawyer, was well known by most US senators, represented the Brewer's association, was associated with the Busch family of St Louis, was known internationally and was highly regarded by the ABA.   The relationship between Bess and Anne was interesting. Bess worked as a librarian in Takoma Maryland which was part of the Washington Public library system. Anne seemed to handle the family accounts, finances, trust company visits, driving and taking care of the family car (a Hupmobile!) and household responsibilities.   Although neither woman married they were involved with family and children on a daily basis. Their sister Mary lived nearby and her two daughters, Polly and Virginia, were very frequent visitors at Ann and Bess's home. Ann and Bess also visited their brother Brainard's home weekly and saw his children: Rebecca, Mollie and Brainard IV.   Anne was also involved with Children's Home work and visited a local school to help with programs there. She and Bess were also involved in a number of societies.   As I read this diary I noticed that Anne and Bess were very frugal compared to their sister Mary and her two brothers. They lived in an apartment rather than owning a large home. Mary Warner Cooke and Brainard Warner Jr built and owned large and beautiful homes. Anne and Bess owned the same Hupmobile for at least 4 years. Their sister Mary drove several new cars including a Cadillac. Anne and Mary didn't do any international travel from 1925 to 1928. In 1929 they did sail to Europe. They also had their hats \"renovated\" or reblocked.   I know they received and lived on payments from a trust established by their father. Brainard, Mary and Parker also received trust payments. But Brainard was a successful lawyer, Levi Cooke was also a successful lawyer and Parker was employed by the Department of the Interior.   So I'm not sure if Anne and Bess were naturally frugal or if they had a financial need to live carefully.   What I learned about Anne:   * She loved children, her nieces and nephews, her sister Bess, flowers, the Cherry Blossoms (she really loved the Cherry Blossoms), the Children's Home, the symphony, plays, silent movies, current events, listening to the radio, reading. * Anne went to Oak Hill Cemetery often. Her father, mother, brother Southard and several siblings who didn't survive into adulthood were all buried there. She arranged for seasonal flowers and ferns to decorate the graves. (Eventually she and all her brothers and sisters, except for Brainard Jr, and Mary Warner Cooke would be buried there). * She was a very considerate person. If a friend was in the hospital she went to visit. If her niece Virginia had one of her headaches or was sick, Anne went to visit her. She cared for Bess when she was sick. * She loved driving the Hupmobile. She and Bess drove all over. When they really wanted to relax they drove out to Haines Point MD and looked out at the ocean * In 1926 Ann went to Columbia Hospital for Women and spent three weeks there. I think it's likely she had an operation, perhaps a hysterectomy. After her stay in the hospital she seemed more introspective. She started including quotes like \"Live each day as though it might be the last\" in her diary. She wrote about the benefits of relaxation and she and Bess went to Atlantic City to relax on the beach and get treatments at the spa.   Here are some other things that were interesting:       * 1868 Columbia Road (where Anne and Bess lived) is across from Kalorama Park. The building still stands and is called \"The Norwood\". It's a 7-story brown and beige stone building with a small circular driveway in front. The front of the building faces Kalorama Park. The apartments there are described as having big rooms, high ceilings and wooden floors. Since the 1920's I am sure that the original larger apartments were subdivided into smaller apartment space. But the exterior is very nice.       * Mary Warner and her husband Levi built a new home at 2409 Wyoming Ave NW. It was a 6 bedroom, 5.5 bath home with 7564 square feet. It still stands. * Bess and Anne drove out to Primrose Street in Chevy Chase MD a lot. This was the home of their brother Brainard Jr. Here's a photograph of the home today http://www.justnewlistings.com/idx/mris/MC7260540/details.html) * Anne frequently mentioned Mr \u0026 Mrs Kennedy in her diary. I don't know if this family was related to Joe Kennedy, father of President John F Kennedy. But Brainard Warner Jr's family did summer in Massachusetts and eventually had family that lived in Hyannisport, MA. * Virginia was 10 in 1925 and Polly was 11 ½. Their full names were Virginia P Cooke and Polly Mary Cooke. In later years Virginia did a lot of world travel with her mother. Polly did some traveling with them but her name disappears from passenger lists and border crossings around 1932. It's very possible she got married around that time and traveled under her married name. * 1933 was a very bad year for the Warner family. They lost Brainard Warner Jr who died in September at age 58. And they lost Levi Cooke, the husband of Mary Warner, in December at age 50. The only male presence left in the family was Parker Warner who traveled throughout the United States as a surveyor. * Levi Cooke died in December 1933. He was a lawyer and also a legislative representative for the US Brewers' Association. He had acute indigestion and was confined to his bed. Then he died. (It was a heart attack). Cooke was known to nearly every member of Congress. He testified before the House on the Collier beer bill. He was an advocate of modifying the Volstead Act. He was an authority on liquor laws in foreign countries and an expert in constitutional law. http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1955\u0026dat=19321226\u0026id=dG4hAAAAIBAJ\u0026sjid=wocFAAAAIBAJ\u0026pg=3691,4496038 * According to the terms of Brainard Warner Sr's will the income generated from a trust would be divided equally between his wife and 9 children. When his wife Mary H died (in 1954) then the income and principal would be divided among the 9 children. If any had died then any grandchildren would share the 1/9 portion of the trust division. The upshot of this was that Bess and Anne and their brothers and sister had income they received from the trust. When Bess died she willed her 1/9 portion to Anne. * Of all the Warner children who married, only Brainard Jr had a son whom he named Brainard III. Brainard III had a son whom he named Brainard IV (\"Hank\") and who would be around 50 years old. Brainard IV (Hank) has a brother Jonathan and a sister Abby. Brainard IV is married and has a son but I couldn't confirm his name was also Brainard.   CONTENT :   I've summarized a lot of the entries in the diary. As I read through the diary it was hard to exclude material. But there's a LOT of material that I didn't transcribe. Anne mentioned the weather each day and I also excluded most of that material. I highlighted the entries that I liked.   1925   In 1925 Anne and Bess both lived in Washington D.C. Bess worked as a librarian at the library in Takoma MD.

She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 36. Southard was 27 and Anne 32 in 1908. Southard was one of Anne's younger brothers. He was in the US Diplomatic corps and served as a consul in a variety of countries. Six years later Southard would be dead. In 1914 he was serving in China. He was hospitalized in an institution and ended up committing suicide by shooting himself. So the diary entries about Southard are poignant. Anne loved him and wrote that by far the nicest sight she had seen in Europe was his face which she hadn't seen in a year and a half.\"","The following description and transcription has been provided by the seller and has not been verified. It goes far beyond the scope of this single diary and includes background information from other family papers that were at the seller's disposal as well as Warner family genealogical research: \"This is the 1925 to 1929 handwritten diary of Anna P Warner. It's a Ward's 5 Year Diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. There are entries for 1925 to 1928. The diary gives a surprising view into the life of the wealthy in Washington D.C. in the 1920's. Anne wrote of famous historical events like Lindbergh's flight and Carl Sandburg's poetry reading as well as family life, dinners, society events, Bess's work as a librarian in the free library system, riding in their Hupmobile, driving to see the Cherry blossoms, trips to Atlantic city and much much more. From a number of letters and diaries I know that Bess Warner called her sister Anna Warner \"Anne\". Anne was the 4th child born to Brainard H Warner Sr and Mary Jacobs Warner. She was born in 1876 and so was 49 at the beginning of this diary in 1925. She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 52. Also mentioned frequently are her brother Brainard Jr who was 50, her younger sister Mary Warner Cooke who was 46 and the youngest brother Andrew Parker (called Parker) who was 42. Other people mentioned frequently: Mary's husband Levi and daughters Virginia and Polly, Brainard's wife Mary Moore and their children Rebecca, Molly and Brainard III. Also Aunt Harriett, Aunt Lucy and Aunt Bessie. Included with the diary are: * some handwritten notes on scraps of paper and * a Xerox photocopy of very neat photograph (the original photograph is not included in the auction). The picture shows an older man with a mustache, short top hat, suit with vest, pocket watch chain. He's standing in front of a large house next to a serious blond haired boy with a bowl haircut, dressed in a sailor suit staring into the camera. It was stuck in the diary on the day of Brainard Jr's birthday in June. In the background you can barely see a woman. I'm not sure if Brainard Jr is the older man or the young boy. The boy looks like he's 8 to 10 years old. Brainard Jr was 10 in 1885 when his father was 38. The man in this picture looks older than 38. Brainard Jr was born in 1875. Brainard III was born in 1926 when his father was 51. The older man in the picture looks 50 or older. The problem is Brainard Jr died in 1933 when his son was just 7. It's possible Brainard was 7 and big for his age and that this picture was taken in 1933. I tend to think that Brainard Jr is the older man and Brainard III is the boy. Also included is a small newspaper clipping. It's edged in black and is written in German. A rough translation is: \" Today 5 ½ o'clock Elisabeth Merhaut Quiet sleep Weststrabe 59 II 16 June 1925 Faithful commemorate Margarete Harff\" From the 1899 diary of Bess Warner we know that Elisabeth Merhaut helped Bess and Anne settle into their home in Leipzig where they lived for approximately a year. Elisabeth lived in a studio, was an artist and gave German lessons to both Bess and Anne Warner. This looks to be the notice of Elisabeth's death on June 16, 1925 BACKGROUND Anne was the daughter of Brainard Warner Sr and Mary Parker Warner. At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and two brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton. Brainard Warner Sr was a dynamic man who made a fortune in real estate , banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland. He was the founder of Kensington Maryland. His company was responsible for the oversight of building over 1000 buildings and homes in the Washington DC area He was also the founder of the Washington Pubic library. Bess's mother was Mary Jacobs Parker Warner who was descended from Edward Doty, a Pilgrim and indentured servant who sailed over on the Mayflower, signed the Mayflower Compact and helped to settle Plymouth Colony. So Anne grew up in a family that money and status. She had two brothers who served as consuls: Brainard Jr and Southard. Southard committed suicide while serving in Manchuria (China) in 1914. Neither Bess, the oldest child, nor Anne ever married. They lived together all of their lives until Bess's death in 1942. They grew up in a house that their father built at 2100 Massachusetts avenue. As adults they lived in an apartment at 1868 Columbia Road in Washington DC. CONDITION: This is a 5 ½ \" x 5\" diary. It's a 5-year diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. . The Brown leather covers are worn and have detached from the diary. \"A Line A Day\" is stamped in gold on the front cover. The pages of the diary are edged in gold. There is some chipping on the front and back pages but the content is intact. The front page is taped on the back. The words are all readable. This is a string bound diary. In some sections the string seems to be weakening and in other sections they are still pretty tight.   Each page is divided into 5 sections. Anne started with 1925. The writing is mostly in black ink that has toned to sepia. The handwriting is very legible. On some entries the ink on the opposite side has washed out in the paper a bit. So the words look like they have a light to medium brown background. But I had no problem reading the entries.   * 1925 – 194 entries * 1926 - 248 entries * 1927 – 106 entries * 1928 – 78 entries * 1929 – 1 entry       627 entries for 5 years (really 4 since there's ony 1 entry in 1929)       COMMENT:   The first Warner diary I read was written by Bess in 1899. She, Anne and Brainard were in their 20's and living for a time in Leipzig Germany where Brainard was the US Consul. Bess was at times insecure and uncertain. Other times she was arrogant and judgmental. I found that diary fascinating.   This diary was written by Anne 26 years later. I ended up loving this diary and reading every entry. Anne was very good at painting a picture of their lives in the early 1920's.   One thing that struck me was that Anne, Bess and Mary Warner Cooke were strong, independent women. But the men in their lives were also very bright and accomplished. Brainard Warner Sr. was a man with a real talent for leadership who could bring people together. He ended up a very wealthy man. Brainard Jr. was a consul and later a successful Washington attorney. Levi Cooke was a journalist who became a lawyer, was well known by most US senators, represented the Brewer's association, was associated with the Busch family of St Louis, was known internationally and was highly regarded by the ABA.   The relationship between Bess and Anne was interesting. Bess worked as a librarian in Takoma Maryland which was part of the Washington Public library system. Anne seemed to handle the family accounts, finances, trust company visits, driving and taking care of the family car (a Hupmobile!) and household responsibilities.   Although neither woman married they were involved with family and children on a daily basis. Their sister Mary lived nearby and her two daughters, Polly and Virginia, were very frequent visitors at Ann and Bess's home. Ann and Bess also visited their brother Brainard's home weekly and saw his children: Rebecca, Mollie and Brainard IV.   Anne was also involved with Children's Home work and visited a local school to help with programs there. She and Bess were also involved in a number of societies.   As I read this diary I noticed that Anne and Bess were very frugal compared to their sister Mary and her two brothers. They lived in an apartment rather than owning a large home. Mary Warner Cooke and Brainard Warner Jr built and owned large and beautiful homes. Anne and Bess owned the same Hupmobile for at least 4 years. Their sister Mary drove several new cars including a Cadillac. Anne and Mary didn't do any international travel from 1925 to 1928. In 1929 they did sail to Europe. They also had their hats \"renovated\" or reblocked.   I know they received and lived on payments from a trust established by their father. Brainard, Mary and Parker also received trust payments. But Brainard was a successful lawyer, Levi Cooke was also a successful lawyer and Parker was employed by the Department of the Interior.   So I'm not sure if Anne and Bess were naturally frugal or if they had a financial need to live carefully.   What I learned about Anne:   * She loved children, her nieces and nephews, her sister Bess, flowers, the Cherry Blossoms (she really loved the Cherry Blossoms), the Children's Home, the symphony, plays, silent movies, current events, listening to the radio, reading. * Anne went to Oak Hill Cemetery often. Her father, mother, brother Southard and several siblings who didn't survive into adulthood were all buried there. She arranged for seasonal flowers and ferns to decorate the graves. (Eventually she and all her brothers and sisters, except for Brainard Jr, and Mary Warner Cooke would be buried there). * She was a very considerate person. If a friend was in the hospital she went to visit. If her niece Virginia had one of her headaches or was sick, Anne went to visit her. She cared for Bess when she was sick. * She loved driving the Hupmobile. She and Bess drove all over. When they really wanted to relax they drove out to Haines Point MD and looked out at the ocean * In 1926 Ann went to Columbia Hospital for Women and spent three weeks there. I think it's likely she had an operation, perhaps a hysterectomy. After her stay in the hospital she seemed more introspective. She started including quotes like \"Live each day as though it might be the last\" in her diary. She wrote about the benefits of relaxation and she and Bess went to Atlantic City to relax on the beach and get treatments at the spa.   Here are some other things that were interesting:       * 1868 Columbia Road (where Anne and Bess lived) is across from Kalorama Park. The building still stands and is called \"The Norwood\". It's a 7-story brown and beige stone building with a small circular driveway in front. The front of the building faces Kalorama Park. The apartments there are described as having big rooms, high ceilings and wooden floors. Since the 1920's I am sure that the original larger apartments were subdivided into smaller apartment space. But the exterior is very nice.       * Mary Warner and her husband Levi built a new home at 2409 Wyoming Ave NW. It was a 6 bedroom, 5.5 bath home with 7564 square feet. It still stands. * Bess and Anne drove out to Primrose Street in Chevy Chase MD a lot. This was the home of their brother Brainard Jr. Here's a photograph of the home today http://www.justnewlistings.com/idx/mris/MC7260540/details.html) * Anne frequently mentioned Mr \u0026 Mrs Kennedy in her diary. I don't know if this family was related to Joe Kennedy, father of President John F Kennedy. But Brainard Warner Jr's family did summer in Massachusetts and eventually had family that lived in Hyannisport, MA. * Virginia was 10 in 1925 and Polly was 11 ½. Their full names were Virginia P Cooke and Polly Mary Cooke. In later years Virginia did a lot of world travel with her mother. Polly did some traveling with them but her name disappears from passenger lists and border crossings around 1932. It's very possible she got married around that time and traveled under her married name. * 1933 was a very bad year for the Warner family. They lost Brainard Warner Jr who died in September at age 58. And they lost Levi Cooke, the husband of Mary Warner, in December at age 50. The only male presence left in the family was Parker Warner who traveled throughout the United States as a surveyor. * Levi Cooke died in December 1933. He was a lawyer and also a legislative representative for the US Brewers' Association. He had acute indigestion and was confined to his bed. Then he died. (It was a heart attack). Cooke was known to nearly every member of Congress. He testified before the House on the Collier beer bill. He was an advocate of modifying the Volstead Act. He was an authority on liquor laws in foreign countries and an expert in constitutional law. http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1955\u0026dat=19321226\u0026id=dG4hAAAAIBAJ\u0026sjid=wocFAAAAIBAJ\u0026pg=3691,4496038 * According to the terms of Brainard Warner Sr's will the income generated from a trust would be divided equally between his wife and 9 children. When his wife Mary H died (in 1954) then the income and principal would be divided among the 9 children. If any had died then any grandchildren would share the 1/9 portion of the trust division. The upshot of this was that Bess and Anne and their brothers and sister had income they received from the trust. When Bess died she willed her 1/9 portion to Anne. * Of all the Warner children who married, only Brainard Jr had a son whom he named Brainard III. Brainard III had a son whom he named Brainard IV (\"Hank\") and who would be around 50 years old. Brainard IV (Hank) has a brother Jonathan and a sister Abby. Brainard IV is married and has a son but I couldn't confirm his name was also Brainard.   CONTENT :   I've summarized a lot of the entries in the diary. As I read through the diary it was hard to exclude material. But there's a LOT of material that I didn't transcribe. Anne mentioned the weather each day and I also excluded most of that material.

At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and three brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr , Southard and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton. Brainard Warner Sr was a dynamic man who made a fortune in real estate , banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland. He was the founder of Kensington Maryland. His company was responsible for the oversight of building over 1000 buildings and homes in the Washington DC area He was also the founder of the Washington Pubic library. Annes's mother was Mary Jacobs Parker Warner who was descended from Edward Doty, a Pilgrim and indentured servant who sailed over on the Mayflower, signed the Mayflower Compact and helped to settle Plymouth Colony. So Anne grew up in a family that money and status. She had two brothers who served as consuls: Brainard Jr and Southard. Southard committed suicide while serving in Manchuria (China) in 1914. Neither Bess, the oldest child, nor Anne ever married. They lived together all of their lives until Bess's death in 1942. They grew up in a house that their father built at 2100 Massachusetts avenue. As adults they eventually lived in an apartment at 1868 Columbia Road in Washington DC.\" \"The diary runs from January 26th 1908 to April 5th 1908.. There are 150 pages devoted to the diary.

She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 36. Southard was 27 and Anne 32 in 1908. Southard was one of Anne's younger brothers. He was in the US Diplomatic corps and served as a consul in a variety of countries. Six years later Southard would be dead. In 1914 he was serving in China. He was hospitalized in an institution and ended up committing suicide by shooting himself. So the diary entries about Southard are poignant. Anne loved him and wrote that by far the nicest sight she had seen in Europe was his face which she hadn't seen in a year and a half.\"\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThe following description and transcription has been provided by the seller and has not been verified. It goes far beyond the scope of this single diary and includes background information from other family papers that were at the seller's disposal as well as Warner family genealogical research: \"This is the 1925 to 1929 handwritten diary of Anna P Warner. It's a Ward's 5 Year Diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. There are entries for 1925 to 1928. The diary gives a surprising view into the life of the wealthy in Washington D.C. in the 1920's. Anne wrote of famous historical events like Lindbergh's flight and Carl Sandburg's poetry reading as well as family life, dinners, society events, Bess's work as a librarian in the free library system, riding in their Hupmobile, driving to see the Cherry blossoms, trips to Atlantic city and much much more. From a number of letters and diaries I know that Bess Warner called her sister Anna Warner \"Anne\". Anne was the 4th child born to Brainard H Warner Sr and Mary Jacobs Warner. She was born in 1876 and so was 49 at the beginning of this diary in 1925. She lived with her older sister Bess who would have been 52. Also mentioned frequently are her brother Brainard Jr who was 50, her younger sister Mary Warner Cooke who was 46 and the youngest brother Andrew Parker (called Parker) who was 42. Other people mentioned frequently: Mary's husband Levi and daughters Virginia and Polly, Brainard's wife Mary Moore and their children Rebecca, Molly and Brainard III. Also Aunt Harriett, Aunt Lucy and Aunt Bessie. Included with the diary are: * some handwritten notes on scraps of paper and * a Xerox photocopy of very neat photograph (the original photograph is not included in the auction). The picture shows an older man with a mustache, short top hat, suit with vest, pocket watch chain. He's standing in front of a large house next to a serious blond haired boy with a bowl haircut, dressed in a sailor suit staring into the camera. It was stuck in the diary on the day of Brainard Jr's birthday in June. In the background you can barely see a woman. I'm not sure if Brainard Jr is the older man or the young boy. The boy looks like he's 8 to 10 years old. Brainard Jr was 10 in 1885 when his father was 38. The man in this picture looks older than 38. Brainard Jr was born in 1875. Brainard III was born in 1926 when his father was 51. The older man in the picture looks 50 or older. The problem is Brainard Jr died in 1933 when his son was just 7. It's possible Brainard was 7 and big for his age and that this picture was taken in 1933. I tend to think that Brainard Jr is the older man and Brainard III is the boy. Also included is a small newspaper clipping. It's edged in black and is written in German. A rough translation is: \" Today 5 ½ o'clock Elisabeth Merhaut Quiet sleep Weststrabe 59 II 16 June 1925 Faithful commemorate Margarete Harff\" From the 1899 diary of Bess Warner we know that Elisabeth Merhaut helped Bess and Anne settle into their home in Leipzig where they lived for approximately a year. Elisabeth lived in a studio, was an artist and gave German lessons to both Bess and Anne Warner. This looks to be the notice of Elisabeth's death on June 16, 1925 BACKGROUND Anne was the daughter of Brainard Warner Sr and Mary Parker Warner. At the time Anne wrote this diary she had two sisters and two brothers who were living: Bess (with who she lived), Mary Warner Cooke, Brainard Jr and Andrew Parker Warner (known as Parker). Her mother died in 1885 when Anne was 9. It looks like Mary Parker Warner died after childbirth. Brainard Warner Sr. remarried two years later in 1887 to Mary Philips. They had three children: Margaret, Albert and Hamilton. Brainard Warner Sr was a dynamic man who made a fortune in real estate , banking and land development in Washington D.C. and Maryland. He was the founder of Kensington Maryland. His company was responsible for the oversight of building over 1000 buildings and homes in the Washington DC area He was also the founder of the Washington Pubic library. Bess's mother was Mary Jacobs Parker Warner who was descended from Edward Doty, a Pilgrim and indentured servant who sailed over on the Mayflower, signed the Mayflower Compact and helped to settle Plymouth Colony. So Anne grew up in a family that money and status. She had two brothers who served as consuls: Brainard Jr and Southard. Southard committed suicide while serving in Manchuria (China) in 1914. Neither Bess, the oldest child, nor Anne ever married. They lived together all of their lives until Bess's death in 1942. They grew up in a house that their father built at 2100 Massachusetts avenue. As adults they lived in an apartment at 1868 Columbia Road in Washington DC. CONDITION: This is a 5 ½ \" x 5\" diary. It's a 5-year diary. There's a blue Brentano's Booksellers – Washington DC sticker on the back page. . The Brown leather covers are worn and have detached from the diary. \"A Line A Day\" is stamped in gold on the front cover. The pages of the diary are edged in gold. There is some chipping on the front and back pages but the content is intact. The front page is taped on the back. The words are all readable. This is a string bound diary. In some sections the string seems to be weakening and in other sections they are still pretty tight.   Each page is divided into 5 sections. Anne started with 1925. The writing is mostly in black ink that has toned to sepia. The handwriting is very legible. On some entries the ink on the opposite side has washed out in the paper a bit. So the words look like they have a light to medium brown background. But I had no problem reading the entries.   * 1925 – 194 entries * 1926 - 248 entries * 1927 – 106 entries * 1928 – 78 entries * 1929 – 1 entry       627 entries for 5 years (really 4 since there's ony 1 entry in 1929)       COMMENT:   The first Warner diary I read was written by Bess in 1899. She, Anne and Brainard were in their 20's and living for a time in Leipzig Germany where Brainard was the US Consul. Bess was at times insecure and uncertain. Other times she was arrogant and judgmental. I found that diary fascinating.   This diary was written by Anne 26 years later. I ended up loving this diary and reading every entry. Anne was very good at painting a picture of their lives in the early 1920's.   One thing that struck me was that Anne, Bess and Mary Warner Cooke were strong, independent women. But the men in their lives were also very bright and accomplished. Brainard Warner Sr. was a man with a real talent for leadership who could bring people together. He ended up a very wealthy man. Brainard Jr. was a consul and later a successful Washington attorney. Levi Cooke was a journalist who became a lawyer, was well known by most US senators, represented the Brewer's association, was associated with the Busch family of St Louis, was known internationally and was highly regarded by the ABA.   The relationship between Bess and Anne was interesting. Bess worked as a librarian in Takoma Maryland which was part of the Washington Public library system. Anne seemed to handle the family accounts, finances, trust company visits, driving and taking care of the family car (a Hupmobile!) and household responsibilities.   Although neither woman married they were involved with family and children on a daily basis. Their sister Mary lived nearby and her two daughters, Polly and Virginia, were very frequent visitors at Ann and Bess's home. Ann and Bess also visited their brother Brainard's home weekly and saw his children: Rebecca, Mollie and Brainard IV.   Anne was also involved with Children's Home work and visited a local school to help with programs there. She and Bess were also involved in a number of societies.   As I read this diary I noticed that Anne and Bess were very frugal compared to their sister Mary and her two brothers. They lived in an apartment rather than owning a large home. Mary Warner Cooke and Brainard Warner Jr built and owned large and beautiful homes. Anne and Bess owned the same Hupmobile for at least 4 years. Their sister Mary drove several new cars including a Cadillac. Anne and Mary didn't do any international travel from 1925 to 1928. In 1929 they did sail to Europe. They also had their hats \"renovated\" or reblocked.   I know they received and lived on payments from a trust established by their father. Brainard, Mary and Parker also received trust payments. But Brainard was a successful lawyer, Levi Cooke was also a successful lawyer and Parker was employed by the Department of the Interior.   So I'm not sure if Anne and Bess were naturally frugal or if they had a financial need to live carefully.   What I learned about Anne:   * She loved children, her nieces and nephews, her sister Bess, flowers, the Cherry Blossoms (she really loved the Cherry Blossoms), the Children's Home, the symphony, plays, silent movies, current events, listening to the radio, reading. * Anne went to Oak Hill Cemetery often. Her father, mother, brother Southard and several siblings who didn't survive into adulthood were all buried there. She arranged for seasonal flowers and ferns to decorate the graves. (Eventually she and all her brothers and sisters, except for Brainard Jr, and Mary Warner Cooke would be buried there). * She was a very considerate person. If a friend was in the hospital she went to visit. If her niece Virginia had one of her headaches or was sick, Anne went to visit her. She cared for Bess when she was sick. * She loved driving the Hupmobile. She and Bess drove all over. When they really wanted to relax they drove out to Haines Point MD and looked out at the ocean * In 1926 Ann went to Columbia Hospital for Women and spent three weeks there. I think it's likely she had an operation, perhaps a hysterectomy. After her stay in the hospital she seemed more introspective. She started including quotes like \"Live each day as though it might be the last\" in her diary. She wrote about the benefits of relaxation and she and Bess went to Atlantic City to relax on the beach and get treatments at the spa.   Here are some other things that were interesting:       * 1868 Columbia Road (where Anne and Bess lived) is across from Kalorama Park. The building still stands and is called \"The Norwood\". It's a 7-story brown and beige stone building with a small circular driveway in front. The front of the building faces Kalorama Park. The apartments there are described as having big rooms, high ceilings and wooden floors. Since the 1920's I am sure that the original larger apartments were subdivided into smaller apartment space. But the exterior is very nice.       * Mary Warner and her husband Levi built a new home at 2409 Wyoming Ave NW. It was a 6 bedroom, 5.5 bath home with 7564 square feet. It still stands. * Bess and Anne drove out to Primrose Street in Chevy Chase MD a lot. This was the home of their brother Brainard Jr. Here's a photograph of the home today http://www.justnewlistings.com/idx/mris/MC7260540/details.html) * Anne frequently mentioned Mr \u0026amp; Mrs Kennedy in her diary. I don't know if this family was related to Joe Kennedy, father of President John F Kennedy. But Brainard Warner Jr's family did summer in Massachusetts and eventually had family that lived in Hyannisport, MA. * Virginia was 10 in 1925 and Polly was 11 ½. Their full names were Virginia P Cooke and Polly Mary Cooke. In later years Virginia did a lot of world travel with her mother. Polly did some traveling with them but her name disappears from passenger lists and border crossings around 1932. It's very possible she got married around that time and traveled under her married name. * 1933 was a very bad year for the Warner family. They lost Brainard Warner Jr who died in September at age 58. And they lost Levi Cooke, the husband of Mary Warner, in December at age 50. The only male presence left in the family was Parker Warner who traveled throughout the United States as a surveyor. * Levi Cooke died in December 1933. He was a lawyer and also a legislative representative for the US Brewers' Association. He had acute indigestion and was confined to his bed. Then he died. (It was a heart attack). Cooke was known to nearly every member of Congress. He testified before the House on the Collier beer bill. He was an advocate of modifying the Volstead Act. He was an authority on liquor laws in foreign countries and an expert in constitutional law. http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1955\u0026amp;dat=19321226\u0026amp;id=dG4hAAAAIBAJ\u0026amp;sjid=wocFAAAAIBAJ\u0026amp;pg=3691,4496038 * According to the terms of Brainard Warner Sr's will the income generated from a trust would be divided equally between his wife and 9 children. When his wife Mary H died (in 1954) then the income and principal would be divided among the 9 children. If any had died then any grandchildren would share the 1/9 portion of the trust division. The upshot of this was that Bess and Anne and their brothers and sister had income they received from the trust. When Bess died she willed her 1/9 portion to Anne. * Of all the Warner children who married, only Brainard Jr had a son whom he named Brainard III. Brainard III had a son whom he named Brainard IV (\"Hank\") and who would be around 50 years old. Brainard IV (Hank) has a brother Jonathan and a sister Abby. Brainard IV is married and has a son but I couldn't confirm his name was also Brainard.   CONTENT :   I've summarized a lot of the entries in the diary. As I read through the diary it was hard to exclude material. But there's a LOT of material that I didn't transcribe. Anne mentioned the weather each day and I also excluded most of that material. I highlighted the entries that I liked.   1925   In 1925 Anne and Bess both lived in Washington D.C. Bess worked as a librarian at the library in Takoma MD.

She and her family did not stay there long and ended up traveling to Whitewater and Middle Fork Indiana. She tells about how her grandfather, Edward Bond had a \"false paper\" drawn up against him for teaching the truth and it was brought up at a Quaker meeting and he almost lost his life over it. She had a very difficult life during her young teenage years and her sister Sarah died at the young age of 18. Her father sold his place at Whitewater and bought some land and built a cabin at Flat Rock.
