The Thomas Allan Collection

Thomas Allan (1774-1845)

Thomas Allan was born near Malton, North Yorkshire. He was married to Esther (d. 21 November 1844), the daughter of Thomas Robinson, merchant and ship owner. They had two sons, Thomas Robinson Allan (d. 8 December 1866) who was also a solicitor and Joseph William Allan (d. 10 February 1848).

A solicitor and political adviser to the Wesleyan Methodists, Thomas Allan was considered to be one of the most important laymen of his generation. Based in Frederick’s Place, Old Jewry, London, he was appointed WM connexional legal adviser in 1803. He came to prominence as a member of the Committee of Privileges opposing Lord Sidmouth’s Bill. The Bill would have effectively put in jeopardy Methodism’s use of local preachers and even threatened the itinerancy itself. Seen as a threat to religious liberties, it was opposed by the Committee which was set up in 1803 to protect nonconformist rights under the Toleration Act. Thomas Allan produced 700 WM petitions against the Bill which contained 30,000 signatures. As a result of the petitions and in the face of growing opposition, the Bill was dropped after its second reading. He was responsible for masterminding the new Toleration Act of 1812 which was of importance to all the Free Churches.

Thomas Allan was a leading member of the Protestant Union, founded in 1813, and opposed Catholic Emancipation in 1829 and grants to Catholic schools. As a local preacher, he preached to the poor in the workhouses and smaller chapels. He died at Brighton on 26 September 1845.

Thomas Allan’s biographical information was taken from the following sources: The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. The Wesley Society online Dictionary of Methodism in Britain and Ireland. The Dictionary of Evangelical Biography.

The Thomas Allan Collection

This is a significant collection which will prove useful for researchers into Methodism and the early 19th century in general. It contains letters from 3 Prime ministers (Henry Addington, Spencer Perceval and Lord Liverpool), numerous bishops, government ministers and senior legal figures. The subjects covered by the archive include the Toleration Act controversy, medicine, Roman Catholic emancipation, and anti-slavery.

Provenance

The collection was probably compiled by the Allan family and passed to the WM Connexion in London sometime after Thomas Allan’s death in 1845. It was retained there by the Methodist Church until 1977 at which time it was transferred to the John Rylands Library on permanent deposit as part of the Methodist Archives and Research Centre.

Arrangement and content

The collection consists of 22 boxes of manuscript and printed material comprising letters, documents, and personal papers relating to Thomas Allan’s role as a solicitor and also concerning his opposition to the Toleration Act and Lord Sidmouth’s Bill. The collection has been listed by item and where an asterisk appears, this indicates that there is biographical information which can be found

1 at the end of the catalogue. The items have been retained in the original box order and have been listed accordingly. The first part of the reference number relates to the box to which the material belongs.
