Wilton Perry Quillian was the son of James Milton Quillian, Jr. (born 1823) of Franklin County, Georgia and Margaret Alda Murry Quillian (born 1825) of Buncombe County, North Carolina. He was part of the Quillian family legacy that were active in the development of the Methodist Church in North Georgia. His ministry occured during the difficult days of reconstruction after the Civil War.
His aunt, Jane Williams Quillian (wife of Rev. Asbury Phillips Quillian) was called the "mother of Methodism" in North Georgia because of the numerous offspring that became local pastors or itinerant preachers. He had a grandfather and a number of uncles and cousins to follow the path of ministry.
He married Georgia Ann Elizabeth Cox on October 9, 1883. There seems to be no record of children. He died at age 25 after just four years of marriage and it appears his wife married again to Isham Teasley, Sr.
