Papers relating to William Henry Quilliam (1856-1932), also known as Sheikh Abdullah Quilliam, the Liverpool-born lawyer who converted from Christianity to Islam in 1887. Quilliam was of Manx descent and established Britain's first Muslim institute and mosque at Brougham Terrace, Liverpool, in 1889. The collection comprises correspondence, press cuttings and printed material, photographs and other research material. The majority of the papers in the collection were compiled by Patricia 'Pat' Gordon (d. 2014), granddaughter of Quilliam, while conducting research into Quilliam's life history.
