Beschreibung:
Wilfrid Littleboy was born in 1885 in Newport Pagnell in England, into a Quaker family. He became an accountant, and was part of the generation of Edwardian radical Quakers who shaped the new pacifist spirit in British Quakerism. He went to prison for his refusal to bear arms in the First World War, and later held many national positions in British Quaker life. He died in in 1979.
In 1914 the leading British Quaker thinker Wilfrid Littleboy (1885-1986) was living in Birmingham. By 1918, he had served prison time in Wormwood Scrubs and in Dorchester Prison.
