Auguste Moreau belongs to the Moreau family, a dynasty of 19th and early 20th century sculptors. He was the son of Jean-Baptiste-Louis-Joseph Moreau and the younger brother of sculptors Hippolyte Moreau and Mathurin Moreau. His children Louis Auguste Moreau and François Hippolyte Moreau were also sculptors.
Auguste is the only one of his siblings who has not received an official award. He is buried in the communal cemetery of Lilas.
Auguste Moreau produced mainly art bronzes. Many of his works are preserved at the Museum of Fine Arts in Troyes and the Museum of Fine Arts in Bordeaux.
