This file contains correspondence relating to the succession to the Shaikhdom of Abu Dhabi, 1909 - 1921; and correspondence relating to the succession to the Shaikhdom of Umm al Qawain 1900 - 1929.
The main correspondents are: the Residency Agent, Sharjah; Political Resident Persian Gulf; Secretary to the Government of India in the Foreign Department; Shaikh Abdullah bin Qasim al-Thani, Chief of Abu Dhabi; Shaikh Saqar bin Zaid, Chief of Abu Dhabi.

A letter in 1927 from the Political Resident to the Shaikh Sagar bin Zaid notes the dispatch of an Arab force by sea which contravened the agreement.
