Born in the Liberty district of Frederick County, Maryland, Urner was educated in the common schools.

He engaged in teaching in his native county from 1859–1862, studied law, and was admitted to the bar in 1863.

He became local attorney for the Pennsylvania Railroad Co. in 1887, and served as a member of the Maryland State Senate from 1888 until 1890.

Urner engaged in banking and other business enterprises later in life, and became a trustee of several educational institutions.
